Aliases

Abbreviated Aliases

The accretive.aaliases module provides abbreviated aliases for accretive data structures. These are convenient if you think the original names are too long or have a problem with typing capital letters.

>>> from accretive.aaliases import acdict, actype
>>> from accretive import Class, Dictionary

Abbreviated aliases are equivalent to the original classes.

>>> acdict is Dictionary
True
>>> actype is Class
True

Qualified Aliases

The accretive.qaliases module provides qualified aliases for accretive data structures. These are useful if you have conflicting names in the namespace into which you are trying to import.

>>> from accretive.qaliases import AccretiveDictionary, AccretiveNamespace
>>> from accretive import Dictionary, Namespace

Qualified aliases are equivalent to the original classes.

>>> AccretiveDictionary is Dictionary
True
>>> AccretiveNamespace is Namespace
True
