Am leaning toward the iterative approach in new_merge.py because it most directly implements the core concept of storing the data in a binary tree. Merits: no recursion, no nested generators, avoids the clutter of left-empty and right-empty checks, easy to understand, simple and fast loops, all local variables or instance variables, no calls to memory allocator after then initial tree construction, runs well on PyPy, and easily Cythonized. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38938> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
