My guess is that the choice is somehow connected to Yoda conditions, where you actually write: if(5 == x) { ... } to avoid assigning 5 to x by mistake. If you write all your conditions like that, then the assert order makes sense. But Python thankfully doesn't need any of that Jedi stuff. -- Łukasz Rekucki -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
