If I understand the code right, "PY_SSIZE_T_MAX/sizeof(Py_UCS4)" would not be correct since it would unnecessarily limit the length of ASCII-only unicode strings. I think the initial check avoids the risk of integer overflow in the calculations below, so it's not entirely redundant. ---------- nosy: +scoder _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34912> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
