Hi!
A thread in PyAr raised the question that, considering that strings
are immutable, why a slice of a string is a copy and not a reference
to a part of that string.
I couldn't answer why, so I'm asking here...Is it because the
reference counting will be complicated? Is it because it'd be

By contrast, the worst that can happen with no sharing is that performance

opportunity for optimization.
Exactly, apparent.
Also, this could be handled like a good writing tip.

I'd call this a bug. The change is an accident, a side-effect of the fact

Anyway, +1 on coercing the mantissa to a str() instance in 2.5.

To fix this, decimal probably needs to grow something like the following

try:
_bytes = bytes

So int and float accepts bytes, while complex, Decimal and Fraction do
not...

Of course, I can be wrong, ;)
