Valid warning.

I don't know why it issues DeprecationWarning but this is not the same
as the previous line.  In this case \w is invalid and, as far as I know,
 has always been invalid.  I think it should be a different warning but
I do understand why it is in a different code path in Python.

It doesn't issue any warning in 2.7 by the way.  It still prints the
same thing so it is still an invalid escape sequence.

Unexpected behaviour with DeprecationWarning, Python 3.7 and escape codes

2018-08-23 Thread Peter via Python-list 
I understand that Python 3.7 now issues DeprecationWarning for code 
entered in the interactive shell and also for single-module programs. I 
see this behaviour with:


C:\wrk> python
python 3.7.0 (v3.7.0:...

import imp

__main__:1: DeprecationWarning: the imp module is deprecated...

But if I use an unknown escape code, then the expected warning doesn't 
issue:



print('Hello \world')

Hello \world

But if I explicitly turn on default warnings, then I do get it:

C:\wrk> python -Wd

print('Hello \world')

:1: DeprecationWarning: invalid escape sequence \w
Hello \world


Shouldn't I see the "invalid escape sequence" deprecation warning under 
3.7 without having to turn on default warnings? They are both warnings 
of class DeprecationWarning. Am I not seeing something? Is this a bug?


I suspect it might have something to do with /when/ the warning is 
evaluated (parsing time vs runtime), but I'm not sure, and I'm not sure 
if that should be relevant to whether the warning is in fact raised. (I 
am aware of PEP 565)

Thanks for your insights.
