This is related to the general type checking discussion. IMO the suggested
>>> 1 > 0
True
wouldn't buy us much, as long the following behaviour stays in Py3K:
>>> a = '2' ; b = 3
>>> a < b
0
>>> a > b
1
This is irritating to Newcomers (at least from rather short time experience
as member of python-help)! And this is esspecially irritating, since you
can't do
>>> c = a + b
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: illegal argument type for built-in operation
IMO this difference is far more difficult to catch for newcomers than
the far more often discussed 5/3 == 1 behaviour.
Have a nice weekend and don't forget to hunt for remaining bugs in
Fred upcoming 1.5.2p2 docs ;-), Peter.
