If you could change something in Python what would it be?
Hi there guys. Recently I posted a question on Reddit. The question was that if you could change something in Python what would it be? I got some really interesting answers from other programmers. Here are some of the top answers till now.
- Make building a stand alone executable part of the spec. The two main projects that do it are hacks
- the namespaces in the datetime module. its really annoying to have to remember if I used
import datetime
# vs.
from datetime import datetime
- optional static typing. as in i would add the ability to statically type things in python, but not make it mandatory.
- “slef” should be a universal alias for self
- Get rid of the GIL
- A good, consistent, Pythonic, cross-platform, batteries-included graphic library. Tkinter is the closest, but the execution loop makes it challenging to do advanced stuff, and the adherence to Tk makes it challenging for a beginner to do basic stuff.I appreciate it’s not easy to design and write such a thing, but I can still wish.
- Compile to native codeCombine 2 and 3 into one version moving forward
