Isn't this mostly about the return type? `pred` is an indication that a boolean is being returned (or that the return value will be interpreted in a boolean context), while `key` is used for more general transformations. In that sense, `pred` makes more sense here. ---------- nosy: +mark.dickinson _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18652> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
