Pending Removal in Future Versions¶
The following APIs will be removed in the future, although there is currently no date scheduled for their removal.
argparse

bool(NotImplemented)
.Generators:
throw(type, exc, tb)
andathrow(type, exc, tb)
signature is deprecated: usethrow(exc)
andathrow(exc)
instead, the single argument signature.Currently Python accepts numeric literals immediately followed by keywords, for example
0in x
,1or x
,0if 1else 2
. It allows confusing and ambiguous expressions like[0x1for x in y]
(which can be interpreted as[0x1 for x in y]
or[0x1f or x in y]
). A syntax warning is raised if the numeric literal is immediately followed by one of keywordsand
,else
,for
,if
,in
,is
andor
. In a future release it will be changed to a syntax error. (gh-87999)Support for
