I know I am flogging a dead horse here, but IMHO, '165', '165.', '165.0', and '165.00' are all valid string representations of the integer 165.[1]Therefore, for practical purposes, it would not be wrong for python's 'int' function to accept these without complaining.
How far would you go with that? Would you also accept '1.65e2' as a valid representation of the integer 165? -- Greg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
