I think this is a pretty unconvincing example. While people seem to love to hate on regular expressions, it's hard to see how that beats def unquote(string: str) -> str: m = re.match(r"^(?:\"(.*)\"|'(.*)'|(?Pvalue3))$", string) > > Doing this with current match syntax is not as easy. > > I have other reasons to consider this idea as well, but before I try to > pursue this, I'd like to know if something like this was already discussed > when the proposal was being made? > _______________________________________________ > 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/4D2CRUSACUYK2VNYHULBUQ525QAF7XDV/ > Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/ > _______________________________________________ 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/PCHVUOR6MZYWSAVYUVZ4E3ZCEH73AFZF/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
