I think Christian means single digit integers. But I thought we already did this for positive numbers? So is the proposal to also cover negative numbers? And obviously having a single loop that explicitly tests the optimization is not exactly indicative of real-world use. =) -Brett _______________________________________________ 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
