What about just supporting filtering syntax at the top level? for x range(50) if x % 2: print(x) It's a minor syntactic change which is very flexible and consistent with the existing comprehension syntax. Could even extend to allow multiple iterators as per a comprehension On Fri, 8 Jun 2018, 15:59 Jacco van Dorp, <j.van.dorp@deonet.nl> wrote:
Given that an exhaust method for generators didn't make it, I dont think a keyword has more chance. For reference, that exhaust method would have looked like:
(print (x) for x in range(50)).exhaust()
and be defined as:
def exhaust(self): for _ in self: pass
Also, there was some more involved method that did it in less characters, having to do with queues of length 0 or something. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
