Blair <bidih...@gmail.com> added the comment: I also agree that this bug was never more than a small wart. However, I'm now curious.
If Python 3 does not support coercion, I think that it will not be possible to write something like my xfloat class, derived from float (i.e., some binary operations between an xfloat and a float would return a float instead of an xfloat). If I am correct in think that it would seem to be a step backward. Will Python 3 deal with mixed types in some other way, or has this problem been abandoned altogether? If it is the latter, I think it is a pity. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5211> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
