We definitely can't make that change to PyNumber_Divmod in 3.7 at this point, I'm sure someone somewhere is relying on being able to get arbitrary information out of their objects with `divmod(crazy_object)`. I don't know enough math to say whether there could be any legitimate mathematical use for arbitrary return values so I leave it to others to determine whether we could make that consider that change in 3.8 just to clean things up. I've looked through _datetimemodule.c and I don't see how timedelta.__divmod__ could fail like this, since it actually creates new timedelta objects from its arguments to work from. ---------- nosy: +zach.ware versions: +Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31577> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
