Python 3.10.5
New SyntaxError ^ pointer is misleading in following example compared to older python versions.
d = {
"foo":"foo",
"bar":lambda b:{"bar":testfn(von="1"b=b)},
}
Results in error message on 3.10.5:
File "test.py", line 3
"bar":lambda b:{"bar":testfn(von="1"b=b)},
^
SyntaxError: expression expected after dictionary key and ':'
While on python 3.8 it was more helpful:
File "test.py", line 3
"bar":lambda b:{"bar":testfn(von="1"b=b)},
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
edit: added triple backquotes to preserve formatting on github. thanks hauntsaninja.
On 3.10.5 it is pointing on the ":" prior to lambda, while on 3.8 it is pointing on the missing comma.
