I don't really understand what you're asking here. If you're asking for the behaviour of multiplication to change so that it becomes more do-what-I-mean-ish, that's not going to happen. You could try writing your own DWIM-style multiplication if that's what you want, but the basic multiplication operator should stay as it is now: a simple wrapper around the C multiplication, which on most machines has a simple, easily-stated and well-defined behaviour: return me the floating-point number that's closest to the exact mathematical result of the multiplication. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20095> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
