New submission from D. Michael Parrish <will.hill...@gmail.com>: >>> version_info (3, 0, 1, 'final', 0) # I know this is an older version---stuck with it at work. # I did not see this issue in the tracker (380 results for nan). # Perhaps there is better documentation for how to use the issue # tracker. Many of the links on the Dealing with Bugs page--- # https://docs.python.org/3/bugs.html#contributing-to-python # ---are not helpful, e.g., 'contribute' just links back the same # page. # # There are similar problems with inf and -inf >>> isnan(float('nan')) True >>> repr(float('nan')) 'nan' >>> '{0:f}'.format(float('nan')) '-1.#IND00' >>> '{0:F}'.format(float('nan')) '-1.#IND00' >>> '{0:g}'.format(float('nan')) '-1.#IND' >>> '{0:G}'.format(float('nan')) '-1.#IND' >>> '{0:.2f}'.format(float('nan')) '-1.#J'
