[Python-3000] PEP 3124 - more commentary (original) (raw)

@abstract def range(*args:3): ...

then that would be best. I propose, therefore, that we require an integer annotation on the *args to enable positional dispatching.

I thought there was already a proposal to do something like this:

    @abstract
    def range(x, y, z, *):
        ...

So there was a specific flag that there are no more positional arguments. Even in an abstract function definition they would at least be labeled, which is a good thing.
