Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: On second thoughts, I think that repr shouldn't change: 'legacy' repr format should mean that it *is* exactly the same as before, including the switch at 1e17 instead of 1e16. Otherwise there will be 3 possibilities for repr output: 'short' repr, 'legacy' repr and pre-3.1 repr will all be different.
Here's a new patch, which leaves repr alone and fixes up the Misc/NEWS entries accordingly. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file13712/issue5780.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5780> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
