Eric V. Smith added the comment: That would be a great improvement. It's in Python/formatter_unicode.c, line 245, in parse_internal_render_format_spec().
That code knows about the format spec, but not the type being formatted. That would be easy enough to pass in. This fix would only work for the built-in types: int, float, and str, I think. Maybe complex. But that's probably good enough. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20524> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
