Tim Peters <t...@python.org> added the comment: I don't see anything objectionable about the class optimizing the implementation of a private method.
I'll note that there's a speed benefit beyond just removing the two type checks in the common case: the optimized `_randbelow()` also avoids populating its locals with 5 unused formal arguments (which are just "a trick" to change what would otherwise have been global accesses into local accesses). So it actually makes the method implementation cleaner & clearer too. But it's really the speed that matters here. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33144> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
