[Eric Snow <[email protected]>] > Does that include preserving order after deletion?
Given that we're blessing current behavior: - At any moment, iteration order is from oldest to newest. So, "yes" to your question. - While iteration starts with the oldest, .popitem() returns the youngest. This is analogous to how lists work, viewing a dict similarly ordered "left to right" (iteration starts at the left, .pop() at the right, for lists and dicts). _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
