New patch, issue2706a.diff, implements timedelta % timedelta and addresses Mark's code review comments. With respect to Mark's """ One other thought: with this division operation added, it might be nice to add constants like td_hour, td_minute, etc. to the module. Then the perennial 'how can I convert my timedelta x to minutes' questions could be answered with 'just do x/td_minute'. I would personally find x/td_second to be a more obvious and natural way to find the total number of seconds in a timedelta than x.total_seconds. I also quite like the idea of being able to create a 2.5-hour timedelta with something like 2*td_hour + 30*td_minute On the other hand, maybe such constants would just be added clutter, since it's easy to create them when needed. """ I dislike this proposal for the same reason as Mark likes it: 2*td_hour + 30*td_minute == timedelta(hours=2, minutes=30) is a violation of TOOWTDI. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file17003/issue2706a.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2706> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
