The money community does not use complexes that I know of, and complex decimals would not be very useful without a complex decimal module (and 3rd party modules). Even the complex float operations and cmath library could use work to touch up and test corner cases. I can imagine giving IDLE a calulator mode. If Python itself had a startup switch, Idle could just restart the remote process. If a new suffix is used, Idle could add the suffix as literal numbers are entered. -- Terry Jan Reedy ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

To be clear: This is a *benchmark* designed to execute the same code for float, cdecimal and decimal. The *original* algorithm from the decimal docs uses a higher intermediate context precision. Since floats do not have such a context, this step was deliberately dropped from the benchmark.

[Python-Dev] [RELEASED] Python 3.3.0 release candidate 3
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On behalf of the Python development team, I'm delighted to announce the third release candidate of Python 3.3.0. This is a preview release, and its use is not recommended in production settings. Python 3.3 includes a range of improvements of the 3.x series, as well as easier porting between 2.x and 3.x. Major new features and changes in the 3.3 release series are: * PEP 380, syntax for delegating to a subgenerator (yield from) * PEP 393, flexible string representation (doing away with the distinction between wide and narrow Unicode builds) * A C implementation of the decimal module, with up to 80x speedup for decimal-heavy applications * The import system (__import__) now based on importlib by default * The new lzma module with LZMA/XZ support * PEP 397, a Python launcher for Windows * PEP 405, virtual environment support in core * PEP 420, namespace package support * PEP 3151, reworking the OS and IO exception hierarchy * PEP 3155, qualified name for classes and functions * PEP 409, suppressing exception context * PEP 414, explicit Unicode literals to help with porting * PEP 418, extended platform-independent clocks in the time module * PEP 412, a new key-sharing dictionary implementation that significantly saves memory for object-oriented code * PEP 362, the function-signature object * The new faulthandler module that helps diagnosing crashes * The new unittest.mock module * The new ipaddress module * The sys.implementation attribute * A policy framework for the email package, with a provisional (see PEP 411) policy that adds much improved unicode support for email header parsing * A collections.ChainMap class for linking mappings to a single unit * Wrappers for many more POSIX functions in the os and signal modules, as well as other useful functions such as sendfile() * Hash randomization, introduced in earlier bugfix releases, is now switched on by default In total, almost 500 API items are new or improved in Python 3.3. For a more extensive list of changes in 3.3.0, see http://docs.python.org/3.3/whatsnew/3.3.html To download Python 3.3.0 visit: http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.3.0/ Please consider trying Python 3.3.0 with your code and reporting any bugs you may notice to: http://bugs.python.org/ Enjoy! - -- Georg Brandl, Release Manager georg at python.org (on behalf of the entire python-dev team and 3.3's contributors) -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlBf+0cACgkQN9GcIYhpnLBqfgCglbN63XUr2m4Ya4ff8Hza1Axl SgMAniQZRJi8uYfeqltf5/G4QV/+SdWT =KXTo -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
