I have no time for a complete response, but a few quickies: - The more I think about it the, more I think putting knowledge of floating point formatting into the wrapper is wrong. I really think we should put this into float.__format__ (and int.__format__, and Decimal.__format__). I can't find a reason why you don't want this; perhaps it is an axiom? I think it needs to be challenged.
- The relative priorities of colon and comma vary by context; e.g. in a[i:j, m:n] the colon binds tighter. - Interpreting X.Y as min.max, while conventional in C, is hard to remember. - If we're going to deviate from .NET, we should deviate strongly, and I propose using semicolon as delimiter. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
