New submission from Mark Dickinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: In Python 2.6a3:
>>> 1 >> (2**31) # unexpected exception Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> OverflowError: long int too large to convert to int >>> 1 >> (2**31-1) # works as expected 0L It might make more sense for the first expression to return 0 instead. Similarly, perhaps 0 << (2**31) should also return 0. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 66484 nosy: marketdickinson severity: normal status: open title: Integer right shift raises OverflowError when second operand is large type: behavior versions: Python 2.6, Python 3.0 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2804> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
