New submission from Jean-Paul Calderone: datetime.timedelta instances are divisible by integers on Python 2.7, but not when __future__.division has been turned on:
exarkun@top:~$ ~/Projects/cpython/2.7/python -c ' from datetime import timedelta print timedelta(seconds=3) / 2 ' 0:00:01.500000 exarkun@top:~$ ~/Projects/cpython/2.7/python -c ' from __future__ import division from datetime import timedelta print timedelta(seconds=3) / 2 ' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 4, in <module> TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'datetime.timedelta' and 'int' exarkun@top:~$ ~/Projects/cpython/2.7/python Python 2.7.5+ (2.7:8205e72b5cfc, Aug 2 2013, 11:12:04) This presents a minor barrier to Python 3 transitions, since it prevents the use of __future__.division in a module trying to retain Python 2 compatibility where timedelta division is used. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 194181 nosy: exarkun priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: future division breaks timedelta division by integer type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18629> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
