Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: Salman Haq, could you find out roughly where expm1 starts overflowing on your machine? E.g., do all of the following overflow for you?
>>> from math import expm1 >>> expm1(709.78271289338397) 1.7976931348622732e+308 >>> expm1(709.782712893) 1.797693134172102e+308 >>> expm1(709.7827) 1.7976699566638014e+308 >>> expm1(709.7) 1.6549840276802644e+308 I'm just trying to determine whether the 10.4 expm1 is so broken that Python should work around it, or whether it's only slightly broken. In the latter case we can just live with it, and either weaken the tests slightly or explicitly skip that particularly test on OS X 10.4. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7575> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
