Robert Kern <robert.k...@gmail.com> added the comment: The practical case I was thinking of was numpy integer scalar types, which can crop up without explicitly requesting them, much like the long type.
Although, now that I check, I see that single-element numpy arrays also pass index(). Ideally, there would be two functions, one that takes sizes and one that takes sequences, much like numpy has array() and empty(). I can revert my patch to doing the isinstance(x, (int, long)) test as a quick fix. That will allow most of the numpy scalar types that I expect will actually be encountered. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11673> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
