Some questions: - What's the plan for the existing functions `math.gcd` and `math.factorial`? Do they eventually get deprecated, or do we keep `gcd` and `factorial` in both `math` and `imath`? - Does PEP 399 apply here? If so, we'll need a pure Python version as well as a C version - Should `imath.isqrt` be renamed to `imath.sqrt`? - What's the actual benefit of this separation? This feels like a really big change to be making a day before feature freeze; I'm not convinced that we don't need a PEP for this. How bad would it be if we have to defer until 3.9? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37132> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
