New submission from Brandt Bucher <brandtbuc...@gmail.com>:
Currently, it isn't legal to perform <, >, <=, or >= rich comparisons on any complex objects, even though these operations are mathematically well-defined for real numbers. The attached PR addresses this by defining rich comparisons for real-valued complex objects against subclasses of int and float, as well as for decimal.Decimal and fractions.Fraction types. They still raise TypeErrors when either of the operands has a nonzero imaginary part. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 336628 nosy: brandtbucher priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Allow rich comparisons for real-valued complex objects. type: enhancement versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36117> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
