Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Zac Evans (karadoc) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Option to force variables to be declared Initial Comment: My most common python programming error is to spell a variable different ways in different parts of a program. Often this generates no warnings, and is a difficult problem to track down. The Zen of Python says that 'Explicit is better than Implicit'. I would like it if I could set an option so that I had to explicitly declare variables before I can use them. eg. x = 5 would generate a warning, but x = int() x = 5 would not. I do believe that explicit is better than implicit with respect to programming; and I know that this feature would save me a _lot_ of debugging on my larger python projects. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=355470&aid=1122279&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
