py3-typing_extensions-4.15.0
backported type hints for python >= 3.5
Back to search · Project homepage
Description
This was originally a backport of the standard library 'typing' module to
Python versions older than 3.5.
Typing defines a standard notation for Python function and variable type
annotations. The notation can be used for documenting code in a concise,
standard format, and it has been designed to also be used by static and runtime
type checkers, static analyzers, IDEs and other tools.
Today, 'typing_extensions' serves two related purposes:
- Enable use of new type system features on older Python versions. For example,
'typing.TypeGuard' is new in Python 3.10, but 'typing_extensions' allows
users on Python 3.6 through 3.9 to use it too.
- Enable experimentation with new type system PEPs before they are accepted and
added to the 'typing' module.
