That's why the name sucks - there are, in general, two adjacent floats, so "next" is ambiguous. I expect you intend that y default to math.inf, which would make one-argument `nextafter(x)` a spelling of `nextUp(x)`. Fine by me! That's probably the one I want most often. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39288> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
