Jan Kaliszewski <z...@chopin.edu.pl> added the comment: Interesting that in Py2.5...
>>> del range(10)[::maxint] ...this causes segfault but in Py2.6 is ok, as well as in Py3.0 (with maxsize insetad of maxint). (That's why I didn't noticed that it concerns newer version than 2.5, and marked only 2.5). But, as Ezio noted, e.g.: >>> del range(10)[5::maxint] ...crashes all of them, e.g: Python 3.0.1+ (r301:69556, Apr 15 2009, 15:59:22) [GCC 4.3.3] on linux2 >>> from sys import maxsize >>> del list(range(10))[::maxsize] # <- OK >>> del list(range(10))[5::maxsize] Segmentation fault ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7788> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
