Armin Rigo added the comment:
Just mentioning it here again, but "type(a).__index__(a)" is still not
perfectly correct. Attached is a case where it differs.
I think you get always the correct answer by evaluating "range(a).stop". It's
admittedly obscure... For example:
class A:
def __index__(self):
return -42**100
a = A()
print(range(a).stop)
