Hi all, When I import pylab the locale settings are changed (I'm using matplotlib 0.99.0):
In [1]: import locale In [2]: print locale.localeconv() {'mon_decimal_point': '', 'int_frac_digits': 127, 'p_sep_by_space': 127, 'frac_digits': 127, 'thousands_sep': '', 'n_sign_posn': 127, 'decimal_point': '.', 'int_curr_symbol': '', 'n_cs_precedes': 127, 'p_sign_posn': 127, 'mon_thousands_sep': '', 'negative_sign': '', 'currency_symbol': '', 'n_sep_by_space': 127, 'mon_grouping': [], 'p_cs_precedes': 127, 'positive_sign': '', 'grouping': []} In [3]: import pylab In [4]: print locale.localeconv() {'mon_decimal_point': ',', 'int_frac_digits': 2, 'p_sep_by_space': 1, 'frac_digits': 2, 'thousands_sep': '', 'n_sign_posn': 1, 'decimal_point': ',', 'int_curr_symbol': 'EUR ', 'n_cs_precedes': 1, 'p_sign_posn': 1, 'mon_thousands_sep': ' ', 'negative_sign': '-', 'currency_symbol': '\xe2\x82\xac', 'n_sep_by_space': 1, 'mon_grouping': [3, 3, 0], 'p_cs_precedes': 1, 'positive_sign': '', 'grouping': []} Is this a bug or a feature? For me it broke some code in a c-extension which parses a file with floating point numbers and didn't recognize them anymore:( Cheers, Sebastian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
