What's New in Python 3000?
==========================
*Release date: XX-XXX-200X*
TO DO
-----
- See PEP 3000, 3100.
- Test merging certain changes from the 2.5 HEAD code.
- Weed really old/weird stuff from the library.
- Unify range() and xrange().
- Revamp the dict API: keys(), values(), items() return iterators, etc.
- Add the bytes type.
- Rework the standard I/O library to use bytes for binary files.
- Make strings all Unicode.
- Get rid of classic class implementation.
- Get rid of various compatibility-related flags (e.g. division flags).
Core and Builtins
-----------------
- Added function annotations per PEP 3107.
- Moved intern() to sys.intern().
- exec is now a function.
- Renamed nb_nonzero to nb_bool and __nonzero__ to __bool__.
- Classic classes are a thing of the past. All classes are new style.
- Exceptions *must* derive from BaseException.
- Integer division always returns a float. The -Q option is no more.
All the following are gone:
* PyNumber_Divide and PyNumber_InPlaceDivide
* __div__, __rdiv__, and __idiv__
* nb_divide, nb_inplace_divide
* operator.div, operator.idiv, operator.__div__, operator.__idiv__
(Only __truediv__ and __floordiv__ remain, not sure how to handle them
if we want to re-use __div__ and friends. If we do, it will make
it harder to write code for both 2.x and 3.x.)
- 'as' and 'with' are keywords.
- Absolute import is the default behavior for 'import foo' etc.
- Removed support for syntax:
backticks (`x`), <>
- Removed these Python builtins:
apply(), coerce(), input(), raw_input()
- Removed these Python methods:
{}.has_key
- Removed these Python slots:
__coerce__, __div__, __idiv__, __rdiv__
- Removed these attributes from Python modules:
* operator module: div, idiv, __div__, __idiv__
- Removed these C APIs:
PyNumber_Coerce(), PyNumber_CoerceEx()
- Removed these C slots/fields:
nb_divide, nb_inplace_divide
- Removed these macros:
staticforward, statichere, PyArg_GetInt, PyArg_NoArgs
- Removed these typedefs:
intargfunc, intintargfunc, intobjargproc, intintobjargproc,
getreadbufferproc, getwritebufferproc, getsegcountproc, getcharbufferproc
- Removed these opcodes:
BINARY_DIVIDE, INPLACE_DIVIDE, UNARY_CONVERT
- zip returns an iterator
- Additions:
set literals, ellipsis literal
