We should not discard the scalar in scalar*infinity expressions.
I don't think that would help as much as you seem to imagine it would. Consider f(x) = 1/x**2, g(x) = 1/x**3, h(x) = f(x) / g(x). Keeping a scalar multiplier attached to infinities isn't going to help you get a sensible result for h(0) given f(0) and g(0). Doing that kind of thing would require a full-blown computer algebra system capable of reasoning about limits. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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/DP32URSLRTP27ZFLL2RAUQLA5XFGRFSI/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
