This is puzzling, isn't it? It *could* overflow, could it not? >> I think there is a second solution: perform the multiplication >> unsigned in the first place. > > That would work too. I find the above code clearer, though. I agree in this case. In general, I'm not convinced that it is always possible to rewrite the code in that way conveniently. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1621> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
