I'd rather not go that far, at least in this issue: we'd also end up changing __float__ to allow it to return an int, in that case. If we're considering that, the discussion should go back to python-dev / python-ideas. One difference is that int -> float is a lossy conversion that has to care about details like rounding and overflow. float -> complex in contrast is much simpler. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16290> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
