Special cases aren't special enough ... :-) The itertools are specifically designed to work with general iterators, not just sequences. > Does anyone think a general sequenceview class would make sense You could post one on PyPi but I don't think there would be any uptake. It is often easier to write a simple generator customized to your particular needs than it is to learn and remember a new class to handle an infrequent use case. ---------- assignee: -> rhettinger resolution: -> not a bug status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21744> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
