I think this goes back all the way to a debate we had when we were discussing PEP 380 (which introduced 'yield from', on which 'await' is built). In fact I believe that the reason PEP 380 didn't make it into Python 2.7 was that this issue was unresolved at the time (the PEP author and I preferred

[Python-Dev] async/await behavior on multiple calls

2015-12-15 Thread Roy Williams
Howdy, I'm experimenting with async/await in Python 3, and one very surprising behavior has been what happens when calling `await` twice on an Awaitable. In C#, Hack/HHVM, and the new async/await spec in Ecmascript 7. In Python, calling `await` multiple times results in all future results

Thanks for the insight Guido. I've mostly used async/await inside of HHVM/Hack, and used Guava/Java Futures extensively in the past so I found this behavior to be quite surprising. I'd like to use Awaitables to represent a DAG of work that needs to get done. For example, I used to be one of the

I realized yet another thing, which will reduce overhead: the original array can store values directly, and you maintain the refs by repeatedly updating them when moving refs around. RefCells will point to a pointer to the value cell (which already exists in the table). - `getitem` will be

I think there may be somewhat of a language barrier here. OP appears to be mixing the terms of coroutines and futures. The behavior OP describes is that of promised or async tasks in other languages. Consider a JS promise that has been resolved: promise.then(function (value) {...});

I agree with Barry. We need more material that introduces the community to the new async/await syntax and the new concepts they bring. We borrowed the words from other languages but not all of their behaviours. With coroutines in particular, we can do a better job of describing the differences

Hello, the comparisons >=, <=, >, < cannot be optimized this way. Not every order is a total order. For example, sets a = {1, 2} and b = {2, 3} are incomparable (in the sense that both a >= b and a <= b is False), and it is no pathology. Regards, Adam Bartoš
