Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 2 Submitted By: Roy Smith (roysmith) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: TypeError message on bad iteration is misleading Initial Comment: >>> for i in 5: ... pass ... Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: iteration over non-sequence I know this is kind of a trivial point, but the message "iteration of non-sequence" should really be something like "iteration of non-iterable object", since not all iterable things are sequences. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Reinhold Birkenfeld (birkenfeld) Date: 2005-06-05 12:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1188172 Seems reasonable to me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1187437&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
