I've built Python 3.8.2 on AIX 5.2, 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1. I am seeing different results for the following Python program: $ python3 -c "eps = 2.0 ** -53.0; tiny = 2.0 ** -1022.0; \ print ((1.0 - eps) / tiny * 4.0)"
I get the correct result, 1.7976931348623157e+308, on AIX 5.2, 5.3, and 6.1. But, on 7.1, I get "inf". Anyone know where can I look in the Python source code to investigate this? -- albert chin (ch...@thewrittenword.com) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
