I should add: I discovered the inconsistency while working on my sortedset class, which provides the same interface as set() but is also indexable like a list (e.g., S[0] always returns the minimum element, S[-1] returns the maximum element, etc.). sortedset derives from collections.MutableSet, but it's challenging to precisely emulate set() when collections.MutableSet and set() don't work the same way. ;-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8743> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
