The only real goal I've seen is that you hope that `x == eval(repr(x))` for floating point numbers. But that is doomed to failure since it cannot work for NaN by its very definition.
I think that just means the definition needs a bit more finesse. It would be a reasonable goal for it to give back *some* NaN with the same flags and payload as the original. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/PDOKH6VHHU5QQYIN2BH2TDWJQ2WQRYF3/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
