Message 152098 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

One other things the branch doesn't currently sort out is the official signature of count() and index().

In 3.2, for all of str, bytes, bytearray, tuple, list, range, the index() method takes the optional start:stop parameters.

collections.Sequence.index(), OTOH, does not.

count() splits the field more evenly: str, bytes, bytearray accept the extra parameters, but list, tuple, range and collections.Sequence only support counting values in the whole sequence.
