...definitions or the initializer structure changed. What I really wanted was code that would analyze the shape and members of the initializer, query the class definitions themselves about their members, and then adjust itself to impedance-match the two sets. This kind of thing is called metaclass hacking and is generally considered fearsomely esoteric -- deep black magic. Most object-oriented languages don't support it at all; in those that do (Perl being one), it tends to be a complicated and fra...
...Protocols in typing.py Copyright References and Footnotes Abstract This PEP lays out the theory referenced by PEP 484. Introduction This document lays out the theory of the new type hinting proposal for Python 3.5. It's not quite a full proposal or specification because there are many details that need to be worked out, but it lays out the theory without which it is hard to discuss more detailed specifications. We start by recalling basic concepts of type theory; then we explain gradual t...
...protocols for overloads. For example, no closed form of callable type could express a function that maps bools to bools and ints to floats, like this callback protocol.: from typing import overload, Protocol class OverloadedCallback(Protocol) @overload def __call__(self, x: int) -> float: ... @overload def __call__(self, x: bool) -> bool: ... def __call__(self, x: int | bool) -> float | bool: ... f: OverloadedCallback = ... f(True) # bool f(3) # float We confirm...
