Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Daniel Stutzbach (agthorr) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: timedelta multiply and divide by floating point Initial Comment: In python 2.4.1, the datetime.timedelta type allows for the multiplication and division by integers. However, it raises a TypeError for multiplication or division by floating point numbers. This is a counterintutive restriction and I can't think of any good reason for it. For example: >>> import datetime >>> datetime.timedelta(minutes=5)/2 datetime.timedelta(0, 150) >>> datetime.timedelta(minutes=5)*0.5 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for *: 'datetime.timedelta' and 'float' ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1289118&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
