It looks fine to me. I'm still using Python 2.7 because I haven't found a really compelling reason to migrate to Python 3, but this makes it start looking worthwhile. > Listen, there is a way that type hints can be introduced *WITHOUT* > forcing folks who don't care about them to read them. You could write some IDE features to suppress visibility of the hints. Or maybe it could be done with a decorator-like construct: @-spec(Iterable[Real], Real) -> Real > For the sake of this community and the many noobs who have not found > programming bliss via Python, i implore you to do everything in your > power to convince GvR that he is making a grave mistake, for which no > recovery will be possible. I've always found Python 3 annoying because it broke compatibility with Python 2, but only by a little bit, not enough to add real benefits. This is a real benefit so IMHO it makes the language more attractive rather than less. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
