[issue16772] int() accepts float number base
Mark Dickinson added the comment: I'd suggest leaving 3.2 and 3.3 as they are: the bug is fairly benign, but fixing it could break existing code unnecessarily. That's something that we should try hard not to do in a bugfix release. As to PyNumber_AsSsize_t() used instead PyLong_AsLongAndOverflow(), I *do* think that in general interfaces for built-in functions and methods that accept an integer should be prepared to accept anything that has an __index__. If we can find a way to do that with sane exception types / messages, so much the better. (One common application of __index__-able types occurs when using NumPy, where it's easy to end up with instances of numpy.int32 or numpy.int64 instead of regular Python ints.) I agree with Serhiy that ValueError is the appropriate exception for out-of-range values. [A side-issue here is that the various PyLong_As* utility functions are a mess: some use __int__, some use __index__, etc. I have some thoughts about how to fix this, but that's another issue.] -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16772 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue16772] int() accepts float number base
Mark Dickinson added the comment:
The only difference with previous code is that now OverflowError raised for
large bases instead of ValueError.
Serhiy: can you clarify this remark? Where do you see the OverflowError? The
current exception and message look fine to me, so maybe I'm misunderstanding
what you're talking about:
Python 3.4.0a0 (default:1b2134a78c17, Dec 28 2012, 10:06:47)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5664)] on darwin

int('34', base=2**100)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File stdin, line 1, in module
ValueError: int() base must be = 2 and = 36
[66206 refs, 23451 blocks]
I actually think this issue can be closed as fixed: the current code looks
fine to me, and I don't think the fix should be backported.

Chris Jerdonek added the comment: I actually think this issue can be closed as fixed: the current code looks fine to me, and I don't think the fix should be backported. How about backporting the tests? In addition to adding tests for the fix, Greg added more comprehensive tests for the existing behavior (i.e. test_int_base_limits()). Backporting the latter would help prevent regressions from future fixes in earlier versions. Also, if we don't backport shouldn't there be a version changed in the docs? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16772 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Mark Dickinson added the comment: Sure, I don't see any issue with backporting test_int_base_limits; that has little to do with this issue, though, so shouldn't prevent closing this one. I'll add a Misc/NEWS entry when I commit; not sure it's meaningful to add doc changes, since I the 3.2 and 3.3 acceptance of floats is undocumented anyway. I can and will add a versionchanged entry for the acceptance of __index__-able types, though. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16772 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue16772] int() accepts float number base
Terry J. Reedy added the comment:
To me the doc strongly implies, but does not boldly and baldly say, that base
should be an int.
A base-n literal consists of the digits 0 to n-1, with a to z (or A to Z)
having values 10 to 35. The default base is 10. The allowed values are 0 and
2-36. Base-2, -8, and -16 literals can be optionally prefixed with 0b/0B,
0o/0O, or 0x/0X, as with integer literals in code. Base 0 means to interpret
exactly as a code literal, so that the actual base is 2, 8, 10, or 16, and so
that int('010', 0) is not legal, while int('010') is, as well as int('010', 8).
I think it should be revised to say The allowed values are ints 0 and 2-36.
(or 'integers' or 'index values'). If it had been that already, the current
behavior would clearly be a bug and eligible to be fixed in 3.2/3. As it is, I
will not argue with whatever others do.
(I strongly suspect there are other places in the docs where int args are
similarly implied but not explicit, but int-ness *is* checked. If someone were
to complain about 0.0 being rejected, I expect we would correct the doc, not
the code.;-)

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Why does PyNumber_AsSsize_t() used instead PyLong_AsLongAndOverflow()?

[issue16772] int() accepts float number base
Gregory P. Smith added the comment: I used it because Mark suggested it could have the same behavior as round() and that is the more abstract API that round uses. Regardless, at this point I've added tests and tested for the TypeError when a float is passed as well as testing that the only valid values (2..36) all work. I did not test to see that something supporting __index__ works as Mark suggests because I don't know off the top of my head of anything that does and it seems like a pointless thing to care about for this API. If you want something different, feel free to change the code.

Ah. I was thinking of things like ``int('1.2', 10)``, not the base itself
being a float.
