Message400256
Consider the following:
Python 3.10.0rc1 ...
>>> __debug__
True
>>> del __debug__
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name '__debug__' is not defined
>>> __debug__
True
>>> __debug__ = False
File "<stdin>", line 1
SyntaxError: cannot assign to __debug__
I suggest that attempting to delete __debug__ should be a SyntaxError, similar to attempting to delete None and other constants.
>>> del None
File "<stdin>", line 1
del None
^^^^
SyntaxError: cannot delete None
= = =
The same NameError exception is raised for Python 3.9 when attempting to delete __debug__. For Python 3.8, attempting to delete __debug__ silently fails, so the current behaviour is at least an improvement. |
