The behaviour change for range sounds reasonable to me. Just to make sure I understand the impact of the change: - For Python < 3.10, we sometimes convert the range inputs to Python ints, and sometimes don't. For example, a start value of `np.int64(5)` would be converted, but a value of `True` would not be. - With this change, we'd always convert a non-int to an int, so both `np.int64(1)` and `True` would be converted to a `1` of exact type int. IMO this is fine; the new behaviour seems more consistent than the old. >>> import numpy as np >>> start = np.int64(2) >>> range(start, 5).start is start False >>> start = True >>> range(start, 5).start is start True ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40792> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
