Thank you for the comments, Serhiy. v2 of the patch renames Modules/operator.c to Modules/_operator.c, and changes that name every place I could find it. I also tried to tidy up some of the error message mismatches. I didn't bother with the ones regarding missing arguments, as that would mean checking args and throwing an exception in each and every function. I do like the functional attrgetter better than the object version I wrote. The main reason I went with an object version in the first place was because that's what the C implementation used. Is there any reason not to break with the C implementation and use a function instead? The updated patch takes a rather ugly hack to try to use the functional version in an object. length_hint() was horrible and has been rewritten. It should be less horrible now :). It should also follow the C implementation quite a bit better. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file28373/py_operator.v2.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16694> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
