Anders Rundgren added the comment: As I said, the problem is close to fixed in 3.5. You should not consider the JCS specification as the [sole] target but the ability to creating a normalized JSON object which has many uses including calculating a hash of such objects

[issue26241] repr() and str() are identical for floats in 3.5

New submission from Anders Rundgren: According to the documentation repr() and str() are different when it comes to number formatting. A test with a 100 million random and selected IEEE 64-bit values returned no differences -- components: Interpreter Core messages: 259244 nosy

[issue26241] repr() and str() are identical for floats in 3.5

Anders Rundgren added the comment: Apparently the docs have changed since 2.7: https://docs.python.org/3.5/tutorial/floatingpoint.html However, the documentation still "sort of" mentions repr() as the most accurate form which isn't entirely correct since it nowadays is identi

[issue26229] Make number serialization ES6/V8 compatible

New submission from Anders Rundgren: ECMA has in their latest release defined that JSON elements must be ordered during serialization. This is easy to accomplish using Python's OrderedDict. What is less trivial is that numbers have to be formatted in a certain way as well. I have tested

[issue26191] pip on Windows doesn't honor Case

New submission from Anders Rundgren: pip install Crypto Terminates correctly and the package is there as well. Unfortunately the directory is named "crypto" rather than "Crypto" so when I perform >>>import Crypto the interpreter fails. >>>import cryp

Parsing and displaying C structs in a semi-intelligent way.

In my day job, we have a large code base of mostly identical projects, each with their own customizations. The customizations can be a real pain sometimes. Especially when debugging binary data. The interesting part of the binary dumps are most often the stuff that are tweaked from project to

[issue23123] Only READ support for Decimal in json

Anders Rundgren added the comment: Antoine Pitrou added the comment: To cope with this potential problem, compliant parsers must preserve the original textual representation of properties internally in order to support JCS normalization requirements That sounds ridiculous. Did someone

[issue23123] Only READ support for Decimal in json

Anders Rundgren added the comment: Antoine Pitrou added the comment: I won't claim to know/understand the specifics, but message payload in base64 actually sounds reasonable to me, if far from optimal (both from readibility and space overhead POV) :-). It is indeed a working solution

[issue23123] Only READ support for Decimal in json

Anders Rundgren added the comment: I guess my particular requirement/wish is unusual (keeping the original textual representation of a floating point number intact) while using Decimal should be fairly universal. If these things could be combined in a Decimal support option I would

[issue23123] Only READ support for Decimal in json

Anders Rundgren added the comment: Bob, Your'e right, I have put up a requirement for JSON serializing that may be over the top. OTOH, there are (AFAICT...) only two possible solutions: 1. Outlaw floating point data from the plot 2. Insist that serializers conform to the spec As a pragmatic I
