Mark, is there any reason hash(float('NaN')) and hash(Decimal('NaN')) have to be a constant? Since NaNs don't compare equal, the hash homomorphism has no restrictions. Why not have hash() return the id() like we do for instances of object? I understand that sys.hash_info.nan would be invalidated, but that was likely useless anyway. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43475> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
