[New-bugs-announce] [issue11881] Add list.get

[Filip Gruszczyński]

New submission from Filip Gruszczyński <gruszczy at gmail.com>:

I have proposed on Core Mentorship list to add get(index, default) method to list object. I was suggested to bring it up here and also told, that improving operator module could be a better solution. This is why I would like to ask, if it makes sense to work on this?

I attach a patch for list objects. I would post a link to Core Mentorship thread, but I believe the archive is private.

The original idea came from a question on StackOverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2492087/how-to-get-the-nth-element-of-a-python-list-or-a-default-if-not-available
