links.

[issue30880] PCG random number generator

2017-07-08 Thread Evelyn Mitchell

New submission from Evelyn Mitchell:

John Cook tested the quality of the PCG Random Number generator 
(http://www.pcg-random.org/index.html) and it appears to have good performance. 

His report is at: 
https://www.johndcook.com/blog/2017/07/07/testing-the-pcg-random-number-generator/

This is a suggestion to add a PCG implementation.

[issue27763] Add complex case to test_builtin abs()

2016-08-14 Thread Evelyn Mitchell

Evelyn Mitchell added the comment:

test_cmath includes abs() of zeros, infinities, and real or imaginary part
NaN, but does not include a test for the magnitude conversion, which would
be triggered by something like
>>> abs(complex(2.1,3.5))
4.08166632639171
>>> abs(complex('2.1+3.5j'))
4.08166632639171

And in looking through test_cmath, it appears that only the two numeric
argument form of complex(i, j) is tested for any of the functions, not the
complex('i+nj') string form.

[issue27763] Add complex case to test_builtin abs()

2016-08-14 Thread Evelyn Mitchell

New submission from Evelyn Mitchell:

The description of abs() says "If the argument is a complex number, its 
magnitude is returned." but test_builtin doesn't include any complex number 
test cases.

[issue27720] decimal.Context.to_eng_string wrong docstring

2016-08-11 Thread Evelyn Mitchell

Evelyn Mitchell added the comment:

Thank you Raymond for a detailed patch update. 

I will mention that matlab does not support this conversion [1]. R doesn't 
support engineering notation, either.

It may be that this conversion isn't expected to be part of the standard 
library, and people are more likely to write their own. [2]

The rationale for engineering notation is that it corresponds to SI units of 
measure.

I also agree with Raymond's arguments. Adding tau doesn't add clarity to the

The date string is formatted as:
