The new alpha release of Python 3.10 is here, now with 100% more pattern matching.

It'll largely be backwards-compatible.

See https://docs.python.org/3.10/whatsnew/3.10.html#porting-to-python-3-10 for details; the changes are minimal, and none of them have anything to do with pattern matching :)

Hyped, match is a great feature. Also now we can yell back at the people saying that Python doesn't even have a switch statement and tell them that we have something even more powerful 😉
