They share all attributes and methods. You could just as well ask why positive and negative floats aren't separate classes (based upon the fact that e.g. math.sqrt() and math.log() raise domain errors for negative floats). Just because certain operations aren't defined for all values (or all combinations of values), that doesn't make the values where those operations aren't defined into a distinct type. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
