It may be too late for this, but I like it. We can also elide extra parentheses inside calls, like with generator expressions: sum(4:10:2)

Also, using list comprehension to generator expression analogy, we can have [4:10:2] But putting those two analogies together, (4:10:2) on its own should be a generator expression rather than a range object. Yes, I also considered that approach, but decided against proposing it for that reason. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
