Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com> added the comment: As for StackOverflow links provided by Robert, it looks to me that float.is_integer() is always used improperly.
If keep this method it would be worth to warn against improper use of it. Bad: (x/5).is_integer() Good: x % 5 == 0 or not x % 5 Bad: math.sqrt(x).is_integer() Good: int(math.sqrt(x))**2 == x Bad: while x < y: if x.is_integer(): print(x) x += 0.1 Good (if initial x was integer): x0 = x i = 0 while x < y: x = x0 + i/10 if not i % 10: print(x) i += 1 And provide an example of a *proper* use case (if it exists). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue26680> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
