Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: Batuhan Taskaya opened a duplicate issue #42454. Since it includes PR-23496, with some review, and at least as much discussion, I am closing this issue, contrary to normal policy.
Worthwhile? Batuhan found about 100000 constant slices in 3200 PyPI packages, and 3-50% speedup. Rémi asked "Couldn't [slices] hash like a tuple (start, stop, step)?" Batuhad used the tuple analogy - hashability and hash depends on components. See PR for details. Josh: the PR defines TYPE_SLICE as ':'. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy resolution: -> duplicate stage: needs patch -> resolved status: open -> closed superseder: -> Move slice creation to the compiler for constants _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue11107> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
