Decimal do already has a big BNF display with digit ::= '0' | '1' | '2' | '3' | '4' | '5' | '6' | '7' | '8' | '9' And a note that, btw, "Other Unicode decimal digits are also permitted where digit appears above. These include decimal digits from various other alphabets (for example, Arabic-Indic and Devanāgarī digits) along with the fullwidth digits '\uff10' through '\uff19'." http://docs.python.org/dev/library/decimal.html#decimal-objects Builtin int() doc take you on a link chase that ends at the language reference int literal BNF. Bringing these all to a common root was exactly the reason I brought up these related modules. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10610> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
