[issue20277] default __debug__ value and asserts

2014-01-16 Thread xwild 

New submission from xwild:

Why the python sets the "__debug__" builtin = True by default?
It causes that people never use the "assert" construction 
by their programms in a regular way.

it's too hard to explain everyone that "-O" is required by a script.
It's very usefull instruction and actually it's blocked by default.

xwild added the comment:

Yes it's acceptable, but why the debug mode is enabled by default?
It's a not expected behavior.
