New description:
Right now the category `FiniteEnumeratedSets` overrides a parent class's
`cardinality()` when creating a list. Below is a minimal example of this
behavior:
{{{#!python
from sage.structure.parent import Parent
from sage.categories.finite_enumerated_sets import FiniteEnumeratedSets
class TestParent(Parent):
def __init__(self):
Parent.__init__(self, category=FiniteEnumeratedSets())
def __iter__(self):
yield 1
return
def cardinality(self, bad_arg):
"""
EXAMPLES::
sage: P = sage.combinat.category_doctest_fail.TestParent()
sage: P.cardinality(-1)
1
sage: v = P.list(); v
[1]
sage: len(v)
1
sage: P.cardinality()
1
sage: P.cardinality(-1) # This test breaks
1
"""
return 1 # we don't want to change the semantics of cardinality()
}}}
This seems to be caused by not checking if the parent class has a
`cardinality()` function implemented, and just overriding it with
`_cardinality_from_list()` (which takes no [optional] parameters).
NOTE: The failure will '''only''' show up while running doctests using
`sage -t`, not while running sage.
