Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: If I understand correctly, the complaint is that (for example) in Python 3.x, we have:
Python 3.1.2 (r312:79147, Aug 20 2010, 20:06:00) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5664)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> float.__radd__(3.0, 1) NotImplemented while in Python 2.x: Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Aug 28 2010, 18:05:46) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5664)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> float.__radd__(3.0, 1) 4.0 It's not clear to me whether there's any good reason for this change. (I'm deliberately avoiding the original float + complex example, since complex is a little peculiar in 2.x for x <= 6 anyway---it's treated as an 'old-style' number (not to be confused with an old-style class)). (Changing versions: 2.5 and 2.6 aren't getting bugfixes any more, and 2.7 appears to be behaving correctly.) ---------- nosy: +mark.dickinson _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9930> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
