switch.py should be deprecated, or at least modified because of match statements that debuted in 3.10.6.
Relevant PEPs:
match statements look like this:
from random import randint
match randint(0, 10):
case 0 | 1 | 2 | 3:
print("Terrible!")
case 4:
print("My favorite number!")
case 5 | 6:
print("Average.")
case 7 | 8:
print("Good!")
case 9 | 10:
print("Terrific!")
case _: # default
print("Uh oh, something has happened.")My idea is to introduce default: as an alias of case _: (which also means disallowing default from being an identifier). If reserving default is not an option, just use else.
