[issue1588] str.format() wrongly formats complex() numbers (Py30a2)
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: Two things that haven't come up so far: (1) What about parentheses? The current complex repr and str have parentheses in them, for reasons that I still don't really understand. I'd suggest leaving them out altogether; except that I have the impression (perhaps wrongly) that an empty type code is supposed to correspond to str.

I'd suggest leaving them out altogether; except that I have
the impression (perhaps wrongly) that an empty type code is
supposed to correspond to str. And given that I don't understand
why the parens were in there in the first place, I'm probably
not a good person to judge whether they should stay in a
formatted complex number.
The rule is that if that x.__format__('') is equivalent to str(x). All
of the built-in objects have a test for a zero-length format string and
delegate to str(). But (3).__format__('-') does not call str(), despite
the fact that it's the identical output. That's because the format
string isn't zero-length. Instead, this is the case of the missing
format presentation type.
I couldn't find a case with any built-in objects where this really makes
a difference (although I can't say I spent a lot of time at it). Complex
would be the first one. But that doesn't really bother me.
format(1+1j, '') - '(1+1j)'
format(1+1j, '-') - '1+1j'
Although I guess if we wanted to, we could say that the empty
presentation type is equivalent to 'g', but gives you parens. This would
fit in nicely with issue 5858, if it's accepted. Floats do something
similar and special case the empty presentation type: '' is like 'g',
but with at least one digit after the decimal point.
(2) What about zeros? The current repr and str leave out the real
part (and the enclosing parens) if it's equal to zero. Should
format do the same? I'd say not, except possibly again in the
case where there's no type code.
I agree. Again, we could say that the empty presentation type is
different in this regard.

[issue1588] str.format() wrongly formats complex() numbers (Py30a2)
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: Complex would be the first one. But that doesn't really bother me. It bothers me a little. I see '' as a special case of the empty presentation type, even if that's not what a strict reading of PEP 3101 says, so I expect '', '' '20' all to format the number in the same way, and only differ in their treatment of alignment and padding. That is, adding a '' to the start of a format specifier shouldn't change the formatting of the number itself. So from this perspective, it seems better if format(x, '') ends up doing the same thing as str(x) as a result of the choices made for the empty presentation type, rather than as a result of special-casing ''. Although I guess if we wanted to, we could say that the empty presentation type is equivalent to 'g', but gives you parens. This works for me. [about suppressing real zeros...] Again, we could say that the empty presentation type is different in this regard. Makes sense.

[issue5858] Make complex repr and str more like float repr and str
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: I'm still flip-flopping on this one. On the minus side, this change risks breaking doctests without any enormous gain to show for it. On the plus side, Eric Smith is currently working on implementing sensible formatting for complex numbers (issue 1588), and again the current form of complex formatting is going to cause (minor, surmountable, but still ugly) difficulties for that implementation when the empty presentation type is being used (e.g., format(3j, '') or format(3j, '20')).

[issue5864] format(1234.5, '.4') gives misleading result
New submission from Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com: In all versions of Python from 2.6 up, I get the following behaviour: format(123.456, '.4') '123.5' format(1234.56, '.4') '1235.0' format(12345.6, '.4') '1.235e+04' The first and third results are as I expect, but the second is somewhat misleading: it gives 5 significant digits when only 4 were requested, and moreover the last digit is incorrect. I propose that Python 2.7 and Python 3.1 be changed so that the output for the second line above is '1.235e+03'. Note that in both Python and C, '%.precisiong' formatting switches to exponential notation at 1eprecision precisely to avoid the problem of producing more significant digits than were requested; I'm proposing that the same solution be applied for '' formatting, except that since the empty format code is always required to produce at least one digit after the decimal point, the switch should happen at 1eprecision-1 instead of 1eprecision. This change should not be backported to 2.6 or 3.0 since there's a small risk of breakage (particular in doctests). -- components: Interpreter Core messages: 86728 nosy: eric.smith, marketdickinson severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: format(1234.5, '.4') gives misleading result type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.1 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5864 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: Note that cmathmodule.c compiles fine and that does reference log1p() too. Now that's *really* peculiar. I can't imagine why one would work and the other not. Some ideas about how to proceed from here: - try doing a debug build (./configure --with-pydebug) to see if the errors still occur. (They probably will, but you never know...) - What happens if you add an #include float.h after the line #include Python.h in mathmodule.c? I'm clutching at straws here, but that's the only difference I can see between cmathmodule.c and mathmodule.c that might be affecting this. Your error output from gcc looks as though either: - math.h isn't being included, or - you've got more than one version of math.h, and the wrong one's being included, or - math.h doesn't declare log1p (but you've already said that it does). What *should* be happening is that the line #include Python.h includes Python.h, which in turn includes pyport.h, which in turn includes math.h. It's also odd that this is the first function that fails. If math.h isn't being included somehow, then I'd also expect acosh, etc. to be failing to build.

[issue5872] New C API for declaring Python types
New submission from Larry Hastings la...@hastings.org:
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
I've written a patch against py3k trunk creating a new function-based
API for creating extension types in C. This allows PyTypeObject to
become a (mostly) private structure.
THE PROBLEM
Here's how you create an extension type using the current API.
* First, find some code that already has a working type declaration.
Copy and paste their fifty-line PyTypeObject declaration, then
hack it up until it looks like what you need.
* Next--hey! There *is* no next, you're done. You can immediately
create an object using your type and pass it into the Python
interpreter and it would work fine. You are encouraged to call
PyType_Ready(), but this isn't required and it's often skipped.
This approach causes two problems.
1) The Python interpreter *must support* and *cannot change*
the PyTypeObject structure, forever. Any meaningful change to
the structure will break every extension. This has many
consequences:
a) Fields that are no longer used must be left in place,
forever, as ignored placeholders if need be. Py3k cleaned
up a lot of these, but it's already picked up a new one
(tp_compare is now tp_reserved).
b) Internal implementation details of the type system must
be public.
c) The interpreter can't even use a different structure
internally, because extensions are free to pass in objects
using PyTypeObjects the interpreter has never seen before.
2) As a programming interface this lacks a certain gentility. It
clearly *works*, but it requires programmers to copy and paste
with a large structure mostly containing NULLs, which they must
pick carefully through to change just a few fields.
THE SOLUTION
My patch creates a new function-based extension type definition API.
You create a type by calling PyType_New(), then call various accessor
functions on the type (PyType_SetString and the like), and when your
type has been completely populated you must call PyType_Activate()
to enable it for use.
With this API available, extension authors no longer need to directly
see the innards of the PyTypeObject structure. Well, most of the
fields anyway. There are a few shortcut macros in CPython that need
to continue working for performance reasons, so the tp_flags and
tp_dealloc fields need to remain publically visible.
One feature worth mentioning is that the API is type-safe. Many such
APIs would have had one generic PyType_SetPointer, taking an
identifier for the field and a void * for its value, but this would
have lost type safety. Another approach would have been to have one
accessor per field (PyType_SetAddFunction), but this would have
exploded the number of functions in the API. My API splits the
difference: each distinct *type* has its own set of accessors
(PyType_GetSSizeT) which takes an identifier specifying which
field you wish to get or set.
SIDE-EFFECTS OF THE API
The major change resulting from this API: all PyTypeObjects must now
be *pointers* rather than static instances. For example, the external
declaration of PyType_Type itself changes from this:
PyAPI_DATA(PyTypeObject) PyType_Type;
to this:
PyAPI_DATA(PyTypeObject *) PyType_Type;
This gives rise to the first headache caused by the API: type casts
on type objects. It took me a day and a half to realize that this,
from Modules/_weakref.c:
PyModule_AddObject(m, ref,
(PyObject *) _PyWeakref_RefType);
really needed to be this:
PyModule_AddObject(m, ref,
(PyObject *) _PyWeakref_RefType);
Hopefully I've already found most of these in CPython itself, but
this sort of code surely lurks in extensions yet to be touched.
(Pro-tip: if you're working with this patch, and you see a crash,
and gdb shows you something like this at the top of the stack:
#0 0x081056d8 in visit_decref (op=0x8247aa0, data=0x0)
at Modules/gcmodule.c:323
323 if (PyObject_IS_GC(op)) {
your problem is an errant , likely on a type object you're passing
in to the interpreter. Think--what did you touch recently? Or debug
it by salting your code with calls to collect(NUM_GENERATIONS-1).)
Another irksome side-effect of the API: because of tp_flags and
tp_dealloc, I now have two declarations of PyTypeObject. There's
the externally-visible one in Include/object.h, which lets external
parties see tp_dealloc and tp_flags. Then there's the internal
one in Objects/typeprivate.h which is the real structure. Since
declaring a type twice is a no-no, the external one is gated on
#ifndef PY_TYPEPRIVATE
If you're a normal Python extension programmer, you'd include Python.h
as normal:
#include Python.h
Python implementation files that need to see the real PyTypeObject
structure now look like this:
#define
