Stefan Krah added the comment: I think math.isnan('snan') probably should not raise. Decimal('snan').is_nan() just returns true and I am under the impression that IEEE 754 specifies the same. I have to admit though that I just consulted Wikipedia for the latter:
"The predicate isNaN(x) determines if a value is a NaN and never signals an exception, even if x is a signaling NaN." ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15544> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
