Guido van Rossum added the comment: Remember, the only reason to add this would be to enable writing code that works in both 2.7 and 3.4. So it has to be called .format() and it has to format numbers as decimal strings by default. -- ___ Python

[issue17130] Add runcall() function to profile.py and cProfile.py

2013-02-04 Thread Guido van Rossum
New submission from Guido van Rossum: The profile module exports convenience functions for run() and runctx(), which wrap the corresponding methods of the Profile object. But perhaps the most useful method, runcall(), is not wrapped. :-( -- messages: 181403 nosy: gvanrossum priority

Guido van Rossum added the comment: Hm, you seem to be right. Changing the bug title. So, can we speed up method lookup? It's a shame that I have to start promoting this ugly idiom. There's a similar issue where s[:5]=='abcde' is faster than s.startswith('abcde'

Guido van Rossum added the comment: FWIW, using class attributes to ensure __del__ does not hit AttributeError when __init__ failed is more idiomatic than using three-argument getattr(). The reason: in general it is possible that __del__ calls almost any other method on a class (e.g. for a
