Nick Coghlan added the comment: I guess the analogy with bytes objects is that UCS-2 code points can be handled as 16-bit integer objects.
If we're going to do a programmatic deprecation now, that's the only alternative typecode currently available. Do we want to recommend that? Or do we want to postpone programmatic deprecation until we add a 2-byte code point type code for 3.4? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13072> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
