Hi all, In some program I was testing if a variable was a boolean, with this test : if v in [True,False]
My script didn't work in some cases and I eventually found that for v = 0 the test returned True So I changed my test for the obvious "if type(v) is bool", but I still find it confusing that "0 in [True,False]" returns True By the way, I searched in the documentation what "obj in list" meant and couldn't find a precise definition (does it test for equality or identity with one of the values in list ? equality, it seems) ; did I miss something ?
