Re: [Python-Dev] Adding C ternary select (a?b:c) to Python?

I'm surprised that using the colon doesn't cause problems.

Pgen doesn't tag this ambiguous. The LL(1) traversal actually helps here; by the time you see a colon, you already know whether or not you're parsing a ternary telect. -- <a href="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr">Eric S.
