STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com> added the comment:
Rather than adding a new function, why not adding a parameter like sort(key=func, reverse=True)? Something like fnmatch.filterfalse(pat, invert=True)? The Unix grep command has a --invert-match option: -v, --invert-match Invert the sense of matching, to select non-matching lines. The Unix find and test commands use "!" to invert a condition. Example: find ! -name "*.py" # list files which doesn't match ".py" test ! -e setup.py # true if setup.py doesn't exist ---------- nosy: +vstinner _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue30413> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
