STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com> added the comment:
float and int names can be replaced in the current namespace, so you cannot implement such optimization :-( http://fatoptimizer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/optimizations.html#call-pure http://fatoptimizer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/semantics.html#builtin-functions-replaced-in-the-middle-of-a-function Example in the REPL: >>> float=bool >>> float(0) False >>> int=len >>> int("hello world!") 12 I suggest to close this issue as NOTABUG. You need to implement guards at runtime to implement such optimizations without breaking the Python semantics. It is exactly what I implemented in my FAT Python project: https://faster-cpython.readthedocs.io/fat_python.html ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33682> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
