R. David Murray added the comment: Indeed, the short circuit and value return behavior is described in that section just before the example.
I agree with Joel. This is a tutorial, and part of the zen of Python is that all expressions have a boolean value. There are very few places in python programs where it would be considered Pythonic to "cast" a value to one of the two uniquely boolean values via the Bool operator, so it is better that it *not* be mentioned in this context. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23153> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
