[issue35886] Move PyInterpreterState into Include/internal/pycore_pystate.h

[Armin Rigo]

Armin Rigo  added the comment:

Just so you know, when we look at the changes to CPython, the easiest fix is to 
add these lines in cffi:

#if PY_VERSION_HEX >= 0x0308
# define Py_BUILD_CORE
#  include "internal/pycore_pystate.h"
# undef Py_BUILD_CORE
#endif

But if we're looking for a cleaner way to fix this, then cffi's needs could be 
covered by adding a general-purpose-storage dict to PyInterpreterState (like 
PyThreadState->dict, but per sub-interpreter instead of per thread), and an API 
function to get it.

[issue22123] Provide a direct function for types.SimpleNamespace()

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger  added the comment:

Five years have passed with no one pushing this forward.  During that time, 
types.SimpleNamespace() has diminished in popularity and dataclasses have risen 
as a better general purpose data holder.

Marking this as closed.

[issue36050] Why does http.client.HTTPResponse._safe_read use MAXAMOUNT

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter  added the comment:

The 1 MiB limit was added for Issue 1296004; apparently some platforms were 
overallocating multiple buffers and running out of memory. I suspect the loop 
in "_safe_read" was inherited from Python 2, which has different kinds of file 
objects. The comments suggest it does partial reads.

But the Python 3 code calls "socket.makefile" with "buffering" mode enabled by 
default. I agree it should be safe to read the total length in one go.

[issue35551] Encoding and alias issues

[Inada Naoki]

Inada Naoki  added the comment:

@lemburg
I confirmed mac_latin1 and mac_centeuro are identical, even though they are 
generated from different sources.

>>> from encodings import mac_latin2, mac_centeuro
>>> mac_latin2.decoding_table == mac_centeuro.decoding_table
True

How do you think about removing mac_centeuro and adding an alias to mac_latin2?

[issue35551] Encoding and alias issues

[BLKSerene]

BLKSerene  added the comment:

I suppose that mac_centeuro can be removed since it is identical to mac_latin2, 
and there are already some aliases for mac_latin2. Then, mac_centeuro can be 
added as an alias for mac_latin2.

I'm not sure about why latin_1 and iso8859_1 are both supported (they are 
identical). The doc says:

 "CPython implementation detail: Some common encodings can bypass the codecs 
lookup machinery to improve performance. These optimization opportunities are 
only recognized by CPython for a limited set of (case insensitive) aliases: 
utf-8, utf8, latin-1, latin1, iso-8859-1, iso8859-1, mbcs (Windows only), 
ascii, us-ascii, utf-16, utf16, utf-32, utf32, and the same using underscores 
instead of dashes. Using alternative aliases for these encodings may result in 
slower execution."

Also not sure whether this would matter or not.

Removing unused alias is OK.
But I'm not sure about adding new alias.

In encodings/ package, there are both of mac_centeuro.py and mac_latin2.py.
Why alias is needed, without removing mac_centeuro.py?

[issue11776] Constructor signatures missing in types module documentation

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy  added the comment:

I agree that we should properly document all of the types, even if belately.

A PR is premature until we agree in more detail what 'properly' means.  The 
most recent patch 'complete-patch...' has multiple errors and needs major 
revision, to the point that a new patch will be 'based on' rather than 'an 
edit' of Hoy's work.

1. The table needs to be explained.  It should not just duplicate explanation 
elsewhere in the doc.  Currently it only lists classes with Python signatures 
that can be instantiated from Python.  It might make more sense to have a table 
of types that cannot be instantiated, and not list them elsewhere.

The table seems to be a response to an unreferenced and incomplete (and 
therefore non-authoritative) suggestion.  We should do what seems best now.

Perhaps there should be two tables for non-callable and callable (from Python) 
types.  The former without individual entries, the latter with, and with links 
thereto in the table.

Or perhaps skip tables and just make two subsections for the two groups of 
types/classes.  There are not currently alphabetical anyway.

2. The types that cannot be instantiated have wrong doc.
"+   This does support direct creation."
This seems to be Nick's
"This type does support direct creation "
However, 'this' referred to ModuleType, not to the 'do not call' type he listed 
previously.

Correct would be "This type cannot be instantiated by calling it." and I would 
prefer saying this just once and listing the modules in a table with short 
explanation.  Table intro might be
"The following types cannot be instantiated by calling them from Python.  Hence 
no argument signature is given."

3. The wrong initial comments are followed by the wrong 
"Please see :class:`XyzType` (imp.new_module).
Again, these are derived from Nick's comment that only applies to callable 
ModuleType.

The reference to imp is obsolete as imp is deprecated.  The 
imp.new_module(name) entry says to use importlib.util.module_from_spec(spec), 
but a name is not spec.  We don't need to add this; see below.

4. The patch does not touch the ModuleType entry, currently (3.7 online):

 class types.ModuleType(name, doc=None)
The type of modules. Constructor takes the name of the module to be created 
and optionally its docstring.

Note
Use importlib.util.module_from_spec() to create a new module if you wish to 
set the various import-controlled attributes.

This looks fine.  The only thing we might change is the awkward 'Constructor 
takes' to 'A call takes' or something.

[issue36095] Better NaN sorting.

[Tim Peters]

Tim Peters  added the comment:

> *Clearly*, negative NaNs should be sorted to the start
> of the list, while positive NaNs are sorted to the end
> of the list. (Yes, I'm joking, but only a little bit: that's
> the result you'd get if you used IEEE 754's totalOrder
> to sort.

So not a joke at all!  If a revision of the standard mandates a specific total 
ordering, it's certain that people will eventually ask for it be supported.

> But it's difficult to see how it would be useful in
> practice, given that people usually don't know about
> or care about the sign that their NaN has.)

The standard "wastes" an enormous number of bit patterns on NaNs, catering to 
some hypothetical system that uses those bits to encode diagnostic information 
(e.g., maybe the source code line number of the operation that produced the 
NaN), and this is just one more "wasted" bit.  If any implementation actually 
used any of these possibilities, I'm sure semi-plausible ;-) use cases would 
follow.

I bet this was driven by implementation - it's _almost_ what you'd get if you 
viewed the float bit patterns as signed integers.  Seems the only flaw with 
that is that the negative floats are in "reverse order" then.  Which can be 
repaired easily enough; e.g.,

import struct
def totkey(x, *, MASK=(1 << 63) - 1, pack=struct.pack):
asint = int.from_bytes(pack(">d", x), "big", signed=True)
if asint < 0:
asint ^= MASK
return asint

Then

xs = [2.0, 1.0, 0.0, -0.0, -1.0, -2.0,
  math.inf, -math.inf, math.nan, -math.nan]
print(sorted(xs, key=totkey))

displays

[nan, -inf, -2.0, -1.0, -0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, inf, nan]

That makes negative NaNs smallest, positive NaNs largest, puts -0 before +0, 
and in all other respects I checked ;-) appears to match the totalOrder 
requirements.  On most boxes, it will even consider (positive) signaling NaNs 
to "be smaller" than (positive) quiet NaNs, which totalOrder also seems to 
require (presumably again not because it's obviously useful, but because it 
_follows_ from a very simple implementation like the one above).

[issue36095] Better NaN sorting.

[Brandt Bucher]

Brandt Bucher  added the comment:

One other idea I had considered was having a new magic method intended to be 
used for elementwise comparisons such as these (I’m thinking specifically of 
the old __cmp__/tp_compare). Sorting routines could check for this method on 
each element, but fall back on __lt__ if it is missing or NotImplemented. 

This would allow us to define an ordering for types independent of the rich 
comparison behavior. Simply defining it for floats and adding quick patches for 
list.sort/min/max/... would provide the language (and users) with that 
flexibility.

On the other hand, the docs say "insignificant trailing zeros are removed from

[Stefan Krah]

Stefan Krah  added the comment:

I just noticed that there are other differences, for example the "removal of 
trailing zeros" passage does not apply to Decimal:

>>> format(Decimal("1.00e-6"), "g")
'0.0100'

Perhaps it would be easier to have separate docs for float and decimal after 
all, or a long footnote for decimal.

[issue36100] Document the differences between str.isdigit, isdecimal and isnumeric

[Steven D'Aprano]

Steven D'Aprano  added the comment:

I'm re-opening the ticket with a change of subject, because I think this should 
be treated as a documentation enhancement:

- improve the docstrings for str.isdigit, isnumeric and isdecimal to make it 
clear what each does (e.g. what counts as a digit);

- similarly improve the documentation for int and float? although the existing 
comment may be sufficient

https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#numeric-types-int-float-complex

- add a FAQ summarizing the situation.

I don't think we need to worry about backporting the docs to Python 2, but if 
others disagree, I won't object.

[issue36100] int() and float() should accept any isnumeric() digit

[Karthikeyan Singaravelan]

Karthikeyan Singaravelan  added the comment:

Agreed, though str.isnumeric behavior might seem to be correct in terms of user 
who knows unicode internals the naming makes it easy to be used for a general 
user on trying to determine if the string can be used for int() without knowing 
unicode internals. I am not sure how this can be explained in simpler terms but 
it would be good if clarified in the docs to avoid confusion. 

There seems to be have been thread [0] in the past about multiple ways to check 
for a unicode literal to be number causing confusion. It adds more confusion on 
Python 2 where strings are not unicode by default.

Yes, I think that there should be a FAQ about the differences between 
isdigit, isdecimal and isnumeric, pointing to the relevant Unicode 
documentation. I would also like to see a briefer note added to each of 
the string methods docstrings as well.
