Does this mean that existing Python code - like dependencies on pypi won't be generally compatible?
Without metaclasses and dynamic types I think it's better to call the language something else, and say it's Python-inspired (like Elm is Haskell-inspired)
- adsharma 5y agoRenaming the language in the future is still a possibility. For now, all the tests here: https://github.com/adsharma/py2many/tree/main/tests/cases https://github.com/adsharma/py2many/tree/main/tests/cases are run with cpython interpreter and verified for compatibility. Even when there is a desire to innovate (design by contract or pattern matching as an expression), hope to do so without breaking cpython (as long as you stick to the subset).
