Being a die-hard Python user on a daily basis, I concur. I think these core devs should not invent too many new syntax and ways to solve problems which don't need to be added to the language.
I am not sure why i18n is a big deal, let another library deal with it.
Whatever, I have the choice not using this feature after it is accepted and implemented. Their PEP discussion on email always ended up in tangential. Problem I always have with string manipulation is dealing with long string, which for coding style I'd split into multiple +, and thus using format is pretty ugly.
- scrollaway 11y agoYou don't have to use + to join strings on multiple lines. Here: >>> (" foo " ... "bar.") ' foo bar.'
- skj 11y agoThe other day I spent some time tracking down a bug where someone forgot a trailing comma in a multi-line parameter list. That was annoying.
- Luyt 11y agoOk, but this only works for literals.
- scrollaway 11y agoYes, which is what I'm replying to.
