Ya, this change will never be made - give up gracefully :-) 1e100 and 10**100 aren't just of different types, they have different mathematical _values_ now: >>> 1e100 == 10**100 False >>> int(1e100) 10000000000000000159028911097599180468360808563945281389781327557747838772170381060813469985856815104 Of course this has visible consequences, like: >>> 1e100 % 1000 104.0 >>> int(1e100) % 1000 104 >>> 10**100 % 1000 0 ---------- nosy: +tim.peters _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39788> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
