For Windows, you need to do much more than this: it's not just about handling NaNs and infinities, it's about reimplementing the entire function from scratch to give correctly rounded results. Without correctly-rounded results, there's very little point in having fma. If it were a couple of niche platforms that gave bad results, then we could push this through. But it's Windows. :-( ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue29282> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
