Re: A missing iterator on itertools module?

ast <none@none.fr> wrote or quoted:

Why did you renamed itertools as _itertools ?

  Assume I have a module A.py:

import math
def f(): pass

  . Assume I have an additional module B.py:

import A

  . Now, when I'm editing "B.py" in IDLE and type "A.", IIRC
  IDLE will offer me two possible completions: "A.math" and
  "A.f". The "A.math" makes no sense to me. I want it to go
  away. Therefore, I rewrite A.py as:

import math as _math
def f(): pass

  . Now, Idle will only offer the completion "A.f".

  So, I sometimes use this "import math as _math" style. But then,
  it is simpler for me to /always/ use this style; after all: you
  can't know whether someone eventually will import your module!
