[New-bugs-announce] [issue45764] Parse error improvement forgetting ( after def

[Carl Friedrich Bolz-Tereick]

New submission from Carl Friedrich Bolz-Tereick <cfbolz at gmx.de>:

Something I see beginners make occasionally when defining functions without arguments is this:

def f:
    ...

Right now it just gives an "invalid syntax", would be nice to get an "expected '('".

I will try to give this a go! Should be a matter of making the '(' token an expected one.
