import sys
exit(sys.EXIT_FAILURE)
or
import sys
sys.exit(sys.EXIT_FAILURE)
don't look too clear to me. On the other hand, these constants may helpful to people who came from C world.
> 3. I want discourage people from using computed integer results as exit status.
Adding a FAQ entry or updating sys.exit() documentation would be more suitable to achieve the aim of this item. I wouldn't add two constants to the stdlib because of a bad programming practice. |
