Stefan Krah <stefan-use...@bytereef.org> added the comment: I agree that the spec is not unambiguous, but consider the Overflow and Underflow passages here:
http://speleotrove.com/decimal/daexcep.html ==> Overflow ==> In all cases, Inexact and Rounded will also be raised. "Raise" here of course means raising the flags Inexact and Rounded, not Python exceptions. So I would think that if the overflow trap handler is engaged, the flags Inexact and Rounded must be raised (set to 1) in the context. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8613> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
