As someone else wrote in this thread:
- Python is dynamically typed
- thus, the types of most expressions can't be inferred by an ide
- when the type of an expression is unknown, no useful code completition
is possible
- modules are an exception, but having code completition on the re
module doesn't help that much as most of the time you'll deal with
objects out of that module like re objects and match objects
- at least one company provides a commercial IDE (Wing IDE) which claims
to support auto completition by sophisticated data flow analysis. How
well it works probably depends on your programming style
