Anyway, the first half of this issue was centered around the proposition that fractions are a "better decimal", and the latest pull request still has the "decimal backend" in it. :) Fast fractions have been around for a long time (Lisp/sbcl), but apparently they have never been widely used. A fraction-only benchmark is okay, but comparing fractions/decimals in one particular "official" benchmark is a bit strange. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22458> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
