Stefan Krah <stefan-use...@bytereef.org> added the comment: 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
I would say that this is implementation specific, as a workaround for the overflow. This isn't in the spec at the moment. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
