Steven D'Aprano added the comment: Bar, thanks for the time you put into diagnosing this error, it is definitely a bug. The intention is for mean([huge, huge]) to return huge, not raise OverflowError.
I'm reluctant to say that mean() will *never* raise OverflowError, but it certainly shouldn't do so for this case if it can be avoided. I think Mark's diagnosis is probably correct that refactoring the code will fix this. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25177> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
