New submission from Neil Webber <n...@neilwebber.com>:
The math module documentation says: Except when explicitly noted otherwise, all return values are floats. But this code returns an integer: from math import prod; prod((1,2,3)) Doc should "explicitly note otherwise" here, I imagine. The issue being wanting to know that the result on all-integer input will be an exact (integer) value not a floating value. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 413741 nosy: docs@python, neilwebber priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: math.prod can return integers (contradicts doc) type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46828> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
