At least one of those is now fixed in 2.0.1 & 2.6 (http://www.codeplex.com/WorkItem/View.aspx?ProjectName=IronPython&WorkItemId=20632)
The other one I know of is __index__ support, are there more? Seems like doing these all at once makes sense. -----Original Message----- From: users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com [mailto:users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com] On Behalf Of Michael Foord Sent: Saturday, February 07, 2009 6:04 AM To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: Re: [IronPython] repr() results with uint, etc. Dino Viehland wrote: > And the correct change to the source code would be adding __repr__ methods to > the various *Ops types (Int16Ops, UInt16Ops, etc...) which return the correct > formatting.

There are various other minor places where uints don't behave like numbers, which would be nice to address - especially for Ironclad (and making 64bit support a bit less painful for William).
