How complex is complex?

When we say readability counts over complexity, how do we define what level of complexity is ok? For example: Say I have dict a = {'a': 2, 'c': 4, 'b': 3} I want to increment the values by 1 for all keys in the dictionary. So, should we do: >>> for key in a: ... a[key] = a[key] + 1 or is it Ok to

Disable automatic interning

Is there a way to turn off (either globally or explicitly per instance) the automatic interning optimization that happens for small integers and strings (and perhaps other types) ? I tried several workarounds but nothing worked: >>> 'x' is 'x' True >>> 'x' is 'x'+'' True >>> 'x' is ''+'x' True >>>

Kottiyath: > How do we decide whether a level of complexity is Ok or not? I don't understand your question, but here are better ways to do what you do: >>> a = {'a': 2, 'c': 4, 'b': 3} >>> for k, v in a.iteritems(): ... a[k] = v + 1 ... >>> a {'a': 3, 'c': 5, 'b': 4} >>> b = dict((k, v+1) for k

Re: How complex is complex?

You realize of course that these two alternatives are not equivalent. The first does what your problem statement describes, for each key in a given dict, increments the corresponding value. The second creates an entirely new dict with the modified values. Even if you were to write the second one
