Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com> added the comment: 'float' is how python names its floating point number type, and this won't change. Yes, it is based on the C double, but I think that the code is very careful to avoid the confusion.
For example, in the C sources, the word 'float' always has a 'Py' prefix, or an 'object' suffix, to assert that it refers to the python type (e.g. PyFloat_FromDouble, floatobject.c) Do you have a precise example where the distinction is not clear? ---------- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6427> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
