You are correct, I didn't exactly implement the PEP on this point,
probably as a shortcut. I think there's an issue somewhere that
discusses this, but I can't find it. The CPython implementation is
really using "If every character is a digit, then it is treated as an
integer, otherwise it is used as a string".
Perhaps you are thinking of http://bugs.python.org/issue7951. Not
directly on point, but related.
Yes, that's the one I was thinking of. Thanks, David.
I'm not sure I agree with all of the points raised there, but it does
some additional background on the issue.
