How about this? "The not-a-number values ``float('NaN')`` and ``decimal.Decimal('NaN')`` are special. Not-a-number values always compare unordered and unequal to any other value, including themselves. For example, if ``x = float('NaN')``, then ``x == x``, ``3 < x``, and ``x < 3`` are all false, but ``x != x`` is true. This behavior is compliant with the IEEE 754 standard." Due to technology problems at my end, I cannot submit a PR for this, but this should be an easy issue. If somebody wants to use the text above as a start, please feel free to do so. ---------- nosy: +steven.daprano _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40177> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
