syntactic sugar
#6
so i don't understand why python has the @ form of decorators (the syntactic sugar) given that it can be done in a more basic way without that syntactic sugar ... plus the tendancy of python design to avoid syntactic sugar ... why this and not those?

did Guido lose control back then? just recently? if Guido makes a fork, you are going to follow his? i can understand wanting to follow his genius. would that be the reason,no matter what he does? if he didn't have the power to reject the PEP on his own, then he wasn't in control (nobody was, individually).

i would not wonder what do-while means. but i can see where it would add to the timeline of learning the language or learning programming for the first time. but decorators do that, too.

i still don't understand what @sc does. i can't consider doing it without understanding it.
