The name "isqrtrem" works fine for me too, and, indeed, is even more reminiscent of mpz's workalike function. > the number of times I've needed rounded integer square root > is small compared with the number of times I've needed rounded > integer division Speaking of which, the analogy to divmod extends just beyond the lack of an underscore in the name ;-) divmod() allows easy emulation of any division rounding mode, and an instant answer to "was the division exact?". isqrtrem() would support the same for square roots. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46187> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
