Hello. Maybe it's too late for a discussion, but I just couldn't resist. I just found out about this new ":=" operator. I need to ask:
What is the need for this additional ":" to the "="? Why: if (match := pattern.search(data)) is not None: # Do something with match What is wrong with: if match = pattern.search(data) is not None: # Do something with match Assignment expression or assignment statement, it's an assignment, right? It is very clear to everyone that it's an assignment! Can't it all just be a "="? Thank you very much! Kind Regards Ivo Shipkaliev -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
