Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: "Return an iterator fixing *iterable*\ 's length to *length* by either cutting elements off or adding *value* to the iterable."
Rather than mixing both, it would be more flexible to have a separate function for each IMO. Cutting off is already be handled by islice() (isn't it?), and padding should be done with a function called e.g. pad() or rpad(). ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5034> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
