* Relaxed the argument restrictions for non-operator methods. They now
allow any iterable instead of requiring a set. This makes the module
a little easier to use and paves the way for an efficient C
implementation which can take better advantage of iterable arguments
while screening out immutables.
* Deprecated Set.update() because it now duplicates Set.union_update()
* Adapted the tests and docs to include the above changes.
* Added more test coverage including testing identities and checking
to make sure non-restartable generators work as arguments.
Will backport to Py2.3.1 so that the interface remains consistent
across versions. The deprecation of update() will be changed to
a FutureWarning.
Allow mixed-type __eq__ and __ne__ for Set objects. This is messier than
I'd like because Set *also* implements __cmp__. I know of one glitch now:
cmp(s, t) returns 0 now when s and t are both Sets and s == t, despite
that Set.__cmp__ unconditionally raises TypeError (and by intent). The
rub is that __eq__ gets tried first, and the x.__eq__(y) True result
convinces Python that cmp(x, y) is 0 without even calling Set.__cmp__.
* Removed the ifilter flag wart by splitting it into two simpler functions.
* Fixed comment tabbing in C code.
* Factored module start-up code into a loop.
Documentation:
* Re-wrote introduction.
* Addede examples for quantifiers.
* Simplified python equivalent for islice().
* Documented split of ifilter().
Sets.py:
* Replace old ifilter() usage with new.
is not supported on sets. (Unfortunately, sorting a list of sets may
still return random results because it uses < exclusively, but for
sets that inly implements a partial ordering. Oh well.)
instead of into a list for a bit of speed/space savings. Reopened the
bug report too (628246), as I'm unclear on why we don't sort out the
cause of the TypeError instead.
The _update method detected mutable elements by trapping TypeErrors.
Unfortunately, this masked useful TypeErrors raised by the iterable
itself. For cases where it is possible for an iterable to raise
a TypeError, the iterable is pre-converted to a list outside the
try/except so that any TypeErrors propagate through.
underlying dictionaries, there were no reasonable use cases (lexicographic
sorting of a list of sets is somewhat esoteric). Frees the operators
for other uses (such as strict subset and superset comparisons).
Updated documentation and test suite accordingly.
the inplace operators. The strategy is to have the operator overloading
code do the work and then to define equivalent method calls which rely on
the operators. The changes facilitate proper application of TypeError
and NonImplementedErrors.
Added corresponding tests to the test suite to make sure both the operator
and method call versions get exercised.
Add missing tests for difference_update().
immediately after the comparison, there in no use in caching the hashcode.
The test, 'if self._hashcode is None', never fails. Removing the caching
saves a few lines and a little time.
2. Replaced calls to Set([]) with Set() -- Timbot's suggestion
3. Fixed subtle bug in sets of sets:
The following code did not work (will add to test suite):
d = Set('d')
s = Set([d]) # Stores inner set as an ImmutableSet
s.remove(d) # For comparison, wraps d in _TemporarilyImmutableSet
The comparison proceeds by computing the hash of the
_TemporarilyImmutableSet and finding it in the dictionary.
It then verifies equality by calling ImmutableSet.__eq__()
and crashes from the binary sanity check.
The problem is that the code assumed equality would be checked
with _TemporarilyImmutableSet.__eq__().
The solution is to let _TemporarilyImmutableSet derive from BaseSet
so it will pass the sanity check and then to provide it with the
._data element from the wrapped set so that ImmutableSet.__eq__()
will find ._data where it expects.
Since ._data is now provided and because BaseSet is the base class,
_TemporarilyImmutableSet no longer needs .__eq__() or .__ne__().
Note that inheriting all of BaseSet's methods is harmless because
none of those methods (except ones starting with an underscore)
can mutate the .data element. Also _TemporarilyImmutableSet is only
used internally as is not otherwise visible.
than raising TypeError when the other argument is not a BaseSet. This
made it necessary to separate the implementation of e.g. __or__ from
the union method; the latter should not return NotImplemented but
raise TypeError. This is accomplished by making union(self, other)
return self|other, etc.; Python's binary operator machinery will raise
TypeError.
The idea behind this change is to allow other set implementations with
an incompatible internal structure; these can provide union (etc.) with
standard sets by implementing __ror__ etc.
I wish I could do this for comparisons too, but the default comparison
implementation allows comparing anything to anything else (returning
false); we don't want that (at least the test suite makes sure
e.g. Set()==42 raises TypeError). That's probably fine; otherwise
other set implementations would be constrained to implementing a hash
that's compatible with ours.
superficial errors and one deep one that aren't currently caught. I'm
headed for bed after this checkin.
- Fixed several typos introduced by Raymond Hettinger (through
cut-n-paste from my template): it's _as_temporarily_immutable, not
_as_temporary_immutable, and moreover when the element is added, we
should use _as_immutable.
- Made the seq argument to ImmutableSet.__init__ optional, so we can
write ImmutableSet() to create an immutable empty set.
- Rename the seq argument to Set and ImmutableSet to iterable.
- Add a Set.__hash__ method that raises a TypeError. We inherit a
default __hash__ implementation from object, and we don't want that.
We can then catch this in update(), so that
e.g. s.update([Set([1])]) will transform the Set([1]) to
ImmutableSet([1]).
- Added the dance to catch TypeError and try _as_immutable in the
constructors too (by calling _update()). This is needed so that
Set([Set([1])]) is correctly interpreted as
Set([ImmutableSet([1])]). (I was puzzled by a side effect of this
and the inherited __hash__ when comparing two sets of sets while
testing different powerset implementations: the Set element passed
to a Set constructor wasn't transformed to an ImmutableSet, and then
the dictionary didn't believe the Set found in one dict it was the
same as ImmutableSet in the other, because the hashes were
different.)
- Refactored Set.update() and both __init__() methods; moved the body
of update() into BaseSet as _update(), and call this from __init__()
and update().
- Changed the NotImplementedError in BaseSet.__init__ to TypeError,
both for consistency with basestring() and because we have to use
TypeError when denying Set.__hash__. Together those provide
sufficient evidence that an unimplemented method needs to raise
TypeError.
