Subject: bpo-34002: Minor efficiency and clarity improvements in email package. (GH-7999)
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2702638eabe5f7b25f36d295f0ad78cb8d4eda05;p=python

bpo-34002: Minor efficiency and clarity improvements in email package. (GH-7999)

* Check intersection of two sets explicitly

Comparing ``len(a) > ``len(a - b)`` is essentially looking for an
intersection between the two sets. If set ``b`` does not intersect ``a``
then ``len(a - b)`` will be equal to ``len(a)``. This logic is more
clearly expressed as ``a & b``.

* Change while/pop to a for-loop

Copying the list, then repeatedly popping the first element was
unnecessarily slow. I also cleaned up a couple other inefficiencies.
There's no need to unpack a tuple, then re-pack and append it. The list
can be created with the first element instead of empty. Secondly, the
``endswith`` method returns a bool, so there's no need for an if-
statement to set ``encoding`` to True or False.

* Use set.intersection to check for intersections

``a.intersection(b)`` method is more clear of purpose than ``not
a.isdisjoint(b)`` and avoids an unnecessary set construction that ``a &
set(b)`` performs.

* Use not isdisjoint instead of intersection

While it reads slightly worse, the isdisjoint method will stop when it
finds a counterexample and returns a bool, rather than looping over the
entire iterable and constructing a new set.
