Hello Raymond. Many thanks for your explanation. In this case I suggest any of the following: 1) distinguish between integer and floating numbers in scientific notation. Definitely, 1e+6 is an integer. I can't see where else numbers in scientific notation are defined as only floats. 2) to write explicitly in the documentation that scientific notation is always float. I searched documentation of 'scientific notation', but didn't found that (https://docs.python.org/3/search.html?q=scientific+notation&check_keywords=yes&area=default) 3) to provide a better exception message in islice if this is a known issue. Should I change parameters of my report or create a new one? I'm afraid this message may get lost if closed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38801> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
