Summary: Problem with abs function
Initial Comment:
On windows version I get :
>>> abs(-9999999999999999999)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#7>", line 1, in -toplevel-
abs(-9999999999999999999)
OverflowError: long too big to convert
does not handle new longs.
I am using the following work around:
t = a - b # calc t = abs(a - b)
if t < 0 :
t *= -1
