Ram Rachum <r...@rachum.com> added the comment: "I'm not completly conviced by the need of supporting Decimal in timedelta constructor. Why do you use Decimal if the result should be a timedelta? Why not using timedelta directly?"
What do you mean, "Why not using timedelta directly?" How could I use timedelta directly in the timedelta constructor? I'm creating a timedelta, I don't have one ready. I'm getting an `n_hours` variable for some component of my system. And this value happens to come as a `Decimal`. I want to create a `timedelta` out of it. So I'd want to be able to do `timedelta(hours=n_hours)` rather than `timedelta(hours=float(n_hours))`. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14262> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
