Guido van Rossum added the comment: I'd be willing to require eval(repr(x)) == x only for platforms whose float input routine is correctly rounding. That would make the current patch acceptable I believe -- but I believe you think there's a better way in that case too? What way is that?
Also, I'd rather not lock out non-IEEE-754 platforms, but I'm OK with dropping the above roundtripping invariant there. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1580> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
