Jervis Whitley <jervi...@gmail.com> added the comment: I can write a documentation patch for this:
http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html?highlight=complex#complex to highlight the expected format of the string argument. As others have pointed out here, there are a number of other options available to correctly parse the complex string argument: * using eval where appropriate; and * preprocessing to remove whitespace. I think that the current options are sufficient that a patch to apply new behaviour isn't required. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9574> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
