aubmoon added the comment: Neither of those strictly meets the stated format. '0.12345678' is missing the + which is explicit in the format and '+0.1234567' does not have 8 decimal places. Only '+.12345678' has a length of 10, 8 decimal places, and the required sign. I realize this definitely an edge case, but it was encountered in real life.
Thanks again for the careful consideration of this issue. -Mark On Saturday, March 1, 2014, Mark Lawrence <rep...@bugs.python.org> wrote: > > Mark Lawrence added the comment: > > '0.12345678' or '+0.1234567' could both be considered equally valid.
