It would actually work! (missing colon ;-) > I see no new functionality here. Is the only advantage that you save one > line and one indent level? Both are cheap. It's arguably consistent with comprehension syntax, which one could argue makes learning either simpler if you already know the other. But I'm -0.5 on this change as needless churn, and -0.5 on it because I really don't want to invite the full comprehension syntax (with nested "in ... if" clauses) and without it it's still not the same, for a net "vote" of math.nextafter(-1,0). _______________________________________________ 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/CHLZRWY4Q3L7A23D4NUGE6KIRKWYG3JL/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
