Message290109
https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#len * does not specify the exception. In such cases, we occasionally change exception in x.y.0 releases without prior notice other than News and What's New. Also, I think unnecessarily exposing a compile-switch dependent internal detail, as now, is almost a bug. So +1 to applying in 3.7
* The doc does not specify that 'length' cannot be non-negative. Perhaps it should, so no-one will think that they can hijack '__len__' to return something that is not a length, as usually understood. |
