Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: I don't understand the new scaleb testcases (from Mike). They look like this:
precision: 34 maxExponent: 999999999 minExponent: -999999999 -- integer overflow in 3.61 or earlier scbx164 scaleb 1E-999999999 -1200000000 -> NaN Invalid_operation -- out of range scbx165 scaleb -1E-999999999 +1200000000 -> NaN Invalid_operation The specification says that the second operand should be in the range +/-2*(Emax+precision) inclusive, which in this case it is. So clearly there are additional situations in which Invalid_operation should be signalled. It's not clear to me what those conditions are. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7048> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
