[QUOTE="Terry Reedy, post: 1812775"] Calling a feature 'baggage' is not especially nice. Neither is getting facts wrong. Python does too have block terminators. They are called dedents. In doing so it follows standard English outline formatting and the practice of many algorithm pseudocode writers. (I roughly estimate around half or more.) Two examples I have handy: Jon Bently in Programming Pearls and Steven Skiena in The Algorithm Design Manual. So add #whateve-ender-you want, but leave the code executable if at all possible. Dedents are unambiguous. Be adding additional redundant terminators, one adds the possibility of mismatch and ambiguity. Terry J. Reedy [/QUOTE]
