New submission from Serhiy Storchaka: The xrange() object works with integers in the range of C long, not Py_ssize_t. Thus the idiomatic expression xrange(len(seq)) can fail for real sequences if sys.maxint < sys.maxsize (e.g on 64-bit Windows).
Proposed patch changes the xrange() implementation to use Py_ssize_t instead of C long. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: xrange_py_ssize_t.patch keywords: patch messages: 260816 nosy: benjamin.peterson, haypo, mark.dickinson, serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: The range for xrange() is too narrow type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file42022/xrange_py_ssize_t.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26428> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
