This is *all* about adding names to builtins. *Nobody* is seriously proposing changes to Error handling for floats, although there has been some speculation that it could be considered. Subthread tl;dr -- handling of expressions potentially involving numbers not representable as finite floats in Python is a big mess. Too much of the mess is already present in the builtins, *don't* add any more. > There's been ongoing confusion from the expansion of the original topic > here. There has been no expansion to other proposed changes, except the question of whether inf (or Infinity) should be a keyword (I don't think that's been seriously proposed either, except mayby in the OP). _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/PZSVS4WV5CT2SP6QTWPB3C7ZCHAFEBI7/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
