The historical repository for the development of Python's structural pattern matching proposal (PEP 622/634), containing examples, a tutorial, and issue tracking. The proposal was accepted into Python 3.10, so this repo now serves as reference material.

Use cases

• learn how python match statement works
• understand structural pattern matching pep 634
• find examples of python match case syntax
• study how pattern matching was designed for python
• tutorial on python switch statement equivalent

When to choose

• you want to learn or teach Python's match/case syntax
• you need historical context on the PEP design process
• you want example code for pattern matching

When to avoid

• you need a pattern matching library for older Python versions
• you want an actively maintained tool
• you need a production dependency - this is documentation, not a package
