Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: To be valid, your analogy between dates and numbers suggests that a date should be convertible to the datetime with the same date, at midnight. And both objects compare equal, just like 42==42.0
But today this is not the case: it's hard to convert a date into a datetime, and types cannot be ordered: >>> datetime.date.today() < datetime.datetime.now() TypeError: can't compare datetime.datetime to datetime.date ---------- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3249> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
