[Python-ideas] Proposal: Use mypy syntax for function annotations

[Carlo Pires]

I'm very happy to see this happening. "Optional" type checking for python
would be a great addition to the language. For large codebases, use of type
checking can really help.

I also like the idea of using annotations instead of decorators (or
something like that). I'm already using this for python3 [1] in a non
intrusive way, by using assert to disable it on production.
