Gregory P. Smith added the comment: This came up in the language summit today when discussing twisted. .format() is still not supported on bytes though % is in 3.5.
realistically it sounded like twisted needs to support python 3.4 for many years so they can't rely on bytes having a .format() method that also works on 2.7 anyways... but assuming .format() is only useful for text may still have been an oversight. (i'll have to go re-read pep 460 and 461 and discussion before commenting further) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3982> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
