Hi,
I just stumbled upon the following issue (I am running Debian):
$ python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Sep 29 2008, 21:15:13)
[GCC 4.3.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.>>> [2,
None].count(None)
1
from gmpy import mpz
[mpz(2), None].count(None)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: coercion to gmpy.mpz type failed
Is this a bug in gmpy?
Does the underlying GMP code support Nulls?
I don't think it has to. Probably, it just should implement __ne__ to return
False if it cannot coerce. Of course, the codebase is relatively old, so it may
still be using __cmp__ and __coerce__. That would make things more difficult.
