The new structural pattern matching feature in Python 3.10 is a very welcome feature. Is there a way to match inequalities using this statement? Prototype example:
match a:
case < 42:
print('Less')
case == 42:
print('The answer')
case > 42:
print('Greater')
You can use guards:
match a:
case _ if a < 42:
print('Less')
case _ if a == 42:
print('The answer')
case _ if a > 42:
print('Greater')
Another option, without guards, using pure pattern matching:
match [a < 42, a == 42]:
case [True, False]:
print('Less')
case [_, True]:
print('The answer')
case [False, False]:
print('Greater')
