I can, but it seems like the wrong usage of pattern matching and it requires much more code. ``` match m: case {"a": a, "b": b, **rest}: pass case _: raise ValueError ```
We can use pattern matching to unpack sequences, but we have special syntax for this: ``` s = range(100) match s: case (a, b, *rest): pass case _: raise ValueError (a, b, *rest) = s # solve same problem with one line ``` _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/GCMKZFHIB5S6DT24HZ42WLEUBMGTGJKU/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
