Stefan Behnel added the comment: My personal take is: if there is an implementation in the stdlib, it should be the one that's most widely applicable. And that includes large numbers. We have a working implementation that is algorithmically faster for large numbers, so I can't see why we should drop it unused.
I'm for merging patch 7. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22486> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
