Jeffrey Yasskin added the comment: 1) No worries. Even without inlining the common case of __add__, etc., Fraction is now faster than Decimal for smallish fractions [sum(Fraction(1, i) for i in range(1, 100))], and for large ones [sum(Fraction(1, i) for i in range(1, 1000))] gcd takes so much of the time that I can't see the effects of any of the optimizations I've made. Since I wasn't thinking of this as a high-performance class, I'm taking that as a sign to stop optimizing, but gcd is definitely the function to tackle if anyone wants to keep going.
2) I haven't been following __format__, but adding it to Rational sounds fine to me. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1682> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
