Ezio Melotti added the comment: I'm not sure this is really useful. Once I know that I divided by zero and I know where the division is, I don't really care what the numerator is. Knowing the exact type of the denominator (0, 0.0, 0j) doesn't sound too useful as well -- unless you somehow manage to get the wrong type and a 0-value at the same time.
On a side note, I don't like ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo of 3 by 0 too much, but I would prefer ZeroDivisionError: integer division (or modulo) by zero over ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero IIRC the reason why both "division" and "modulo" are included in the message is because the error is created in a piece of code that is shared by both operations. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15815> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
