Ronald Oussoren added the comment: Is it necessary to raise when it_index is PY_SSIZE_T_MAX?
An alternative is to set it_index to -1 when there would be overflow and raise an exception on the next call to next(). That way a virtual sequence with PY_SSIZE_T_MAX-1 items would still work (instead of failing unexpectedly). ---------- nosy: +ronaldoussoren _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22939> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
