New submission from Antoine Pitrou <[email protected]>:
This is more of a "could be nice" entry if there are any interested core developers. A new algorithm and library was recently published for faster parsing of double numbers. It claims rigorous accuracy and the performance is impressive. The implementation is in C++ but it's really decorated C. It also seems simple enough that it can be reimplemented independently. https://github.com/lemire/fast_double_parser/ ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 378960 nosy: mark.dickinson, pitrou, tim.peters priority: low severity: normal status: open title: Consider fast_double_parser for faster str->double type: enhancement versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[email protected]> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42081> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
