New submission from Roy Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Unless I'm missing something, the only way to tell if a deque is empty is to try and pop() something and catch the resulting IndexError. This is not only awkward, but mutates the data structure when you may not want to.
It should be trivial to implement, and run in O(1) time. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 73344 nosy: roysmith severity: normal status: open title: collections.deque should have empty() method type: feature request versions: Python 2.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3891> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
