[$] Adding None-aware operators to Python?
A PEP that has been around for a while, without being either accepted orrejected, was reintroduced recently on the python-ideas mailing list.PEP 505("None-aware operators") would provide some syntactic sugar, in the form ofnew operators, to handle cases where variables might be the special None value. It is a featurethat other languages support, but has generally raised concerns about being"un-Pythonic" over the years. At this point, though, the Python projectstill needs to figure out how it will begoverned-and how PEPs can be accepted or rejected.
