Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
I agree with Raymond, at least for now. I would expect the string argument to Fraction to be quoted legal Python code. Without a lot of thought and discussion leading to a change in python design with respect to unicode and operators, this limits '/' to ascii '/'. I believe that we accept non-ascii digits in at least some places, but operators are a different case. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy title: Fraction only handles regular slashes ("/") and fails with other similar slashes -> Make Fraction(string) handle non-ascii slashes _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43520> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
