rejected-peps 0.9.8

A Python package that implements some rejected, deferred or withdrawn PEPs.

What is this?

PEPs (Python Enhancement Proposals) are a special part of the Python programming language. Some were accepted, and some were not. This package implements some PEPs that were rejected, deferred or withdrawn.

What PEPs are included?

A PEP included needs to match these points:

• It's not a syntax or major API change, or has a simple and clear way to bypass it.

• It's about code, not governance etc.

• It can be implemented in pure Python code.

Parts related to the bytecode, C API etc. are not implemented.

Which PEPs are included now?

PEPs with an * are slightly modified.

How do I use it?

Wiki is coming soon!

Quick example:

>>> import rejected_peps as rp
>>> rp.pep(559).noop()   # Function call
>>> Min = rp.pep326.Min  # Module
>>> Min < 3.14
True
>>> Min == -10, Min == Min
(False, True)
>>> rp.info(416)
pepinfo(number=416, title='Add a frozendict builtin type', status='Rejected', creation='2012-02-29', url='https://peps.python.org/pep-0416/')
>>> rp.SUPPORTED
frozenset({259, 265, ..., 351, 754})
>>>
