New submission from Skip Montanaro <s...@pobox.com>:
Consider this timeit run:
% python -m timeit '-1.0e-3 < -0.0001 < 1.0e-3'
option -1 not recognized
use -h/--help for command line help
As it turns out this works:
% python -m timeit -- '-1.0e-3 < -0.0001 < 1.0e-3'
10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.192 usec per loop
but the output using the -h flag doesn't report it as a possibility. It
probably should.
