[issue38673] REPL shows continuation prompt (...) when comment or space entered

2019-11-07 Thread Anders Lorentsen


Anders Lorentsen  added the comment:

As a person without much experience, it sounded like a simple enough task, but 
having dug a bit, I found it quite complicated. It seems to me that the 
interpreter loop (in the standard REPL, that you get when you start ./python, 
blocks for input somewhere inside a massive function called 'parsetok' (in 
Parser/parsetok.c). Now, I could maybe investigate further, to have it return 
to the interpreter loop if it reads a comment (or empty line), but I'm afraid 
to mess up something.

Am I way off in concluding that this would be a change to the parser?

[issue31956] Add start and stop parameters to the array.index()

2019-09-15 Thread Anders Lorentsen


Anders Lorentsen  added the comment:

I have actually managed to lost my local branch of this fix, though I assume I 
can just start another one, manually copy over the changes, somehow mark this 
current PR as cancelled, aborted, or in my option the best: 
"replaced/superseeded by: [new PR]". In any case, there were discussions that 
seem to be unresolved, allow me to summarize:

* Document that index() raises ValueError when *value* is not found?
> vstinner: We don't do this, remove this addition.
> serhiy: Other index() methods does this.
---> My patch current does this. Who has final saying here?

* 'start' and 'stop' arguments are not keyword arguments, and also not shown in 
the signature as '.. start=0 ..' for this very reason (it may make them look as 
keyword arguments). Also, this lines up with list.index() for consistency. 
Wishes about changing this for all index()-methods has been expressed, but it 
seems to be consensus on doing this in unison for all index()-methods at once, 
in a bigger change... So, what is currently in the PR is good enough for now, 
or?

* Wording in documentation: Clarify that "the returned index is still relative 
to the start of the array, not the searched sub sequence" or not?

* Comment in the code about checking the length of the array on each iteration? 
There were comments about it being "confusing" - and while I agree, the other 
index()-code for lists, does not comment on this. Again I followed the path of 
most consistency, but I did receive comments about this. Yes to descriptive 
comments, or not?



Generally speaking: In the end, all I really did was mimic how list.index() is 
both written and documented, and that's when discussions about issues related 
to that started occurring, and so I now remember that I halted my PR, waiting 
for these issues to be resolved.

[issue31956] Add start and stop parameters to the array.index()

2019-08-27 Thread Anders Lorentsen


Anders Lorentsen  added the comment:

As far as I can recall, the patch is generally speaking good to go. A number of 
discussions arose on various details, however. In any event, I'll take a look 
at it during the next few days.

[issue31961] subprocess._execute_child doesn't accept a single PathLike argument for args

2018-02-06 Thread Anders Lorentsen

Anders Lorentsen <pha...@gmail.com> added the comment:

What do you mean "is a bug", and "the PR would encourage this"? Can't it be 
fixed?

Are you saying that just because it is a bug now, we should be discouraged from 
making it work in the way you'd expect it to work?

If `exe` is a path, these two lines of code should do exactly the same, right? 
It seems unintuitive to me if they produce different results.

run(exe)
run([exe])

[issue31961] subprocess._execute_child doesn't accept a single PathLike argument for args

2018-02-05 Thread Anders Lorentsen

Anders Lorentsen <pha...@gmail.com> added the comment:

> # runs this weird file
> subprocess.run([bin])

> # Currently an error; if this is implemented, would run
> # /bin/ls, and pass it the -l argument. Refers to something
> # completely different than our .exists() call above.

I do not understand where it is stated that this is the behavior. My 
understanding was that if run() is passed a single argument, it will interpret 
the string "/bin/ls -l" to mean "run the `/bin/ls` program, and pass it one 
argument `-l`, whereas if instead run() is given a list, it will literally 
treat the first element as the program to run, regardless of how many spaces or 
whatever else it contains ... And as such, if `bin` is a Path-like object, this 
issue tries to resolve that
run([bin]) works as excepted, but run(bin) fails horribly.

Sure, I can understand that for strings it may not feel natural how these two 
things are interpreted differently, but if `bin` is a Path-like object, it at 
least feels very natural to me that then it should be run as the program name 
itself (as "paths" does not have arguments).

[issue32764] Popen doesn't work on Windows when args is a list

2018-02-04 Thread Anders Lorentsen

Anders Lorentsen <pha...@gmail.com> added the comment:

Wait a minute. The failing test is test_nonexisting_with_pipes, and it fails 
because args[0] is a tuple - how can that be? Nobody is supposed to pass 
cmd=sequence-where-first-element-is-a-tuple!

Is everything all right with the test itself?

[issue32764] Popen doesn't work on Windows when args is a list

2018-02-04 Thread Anders Lorentsen

Anders Lorentsen <pha...@gmail.com> added the comment:

This is strange, because _execute_child calls os.fsdecode with `args` as the 
argument, which may be a list. os.fsdecode calls fspath. Now, the python 
docstring of _fspath, as defined in Lib/os.py on line 1031, clearly states that 
it will raise a TypeError if the argument is not of type bytes, str or is a 
os.PathLike object, and that's probably why I wrote the initial code the way I 
did (catching TypeError from os.fsdecode).

Doesn't the try-except block actually catch this TypeError? I don't understand 
off the top of my head why my code doesn't catch this exception..

[issue31956] Add start and stop parameters to the array.index()

2017-11-13 Thread Anders Lorentsen

Anders Lorentsen <pha...@gmail.com> added the comment:

Writing my tests, I originally looked at Lib/test/seq_tests.py. One test case 
uses indexes that are (+-)4*sys.maxsize. This does not fit in Py_ssize_t, and 
so these tests cause my array implementation to raise an overflow exception.

A solution is of course to have the function take general objects instead, and 
then truncate them down to a number that can fit in Py_ssize_t if it's too 
negative or positive).

But I concur. It seems more reasonable to stay consistent with the rest of the 
module, too.

I'll look over the test code to make sure I test for every given scenario (or 
as many as I can think of), and prepare a PR for this, then :)

[issue31956] Add start and stop parameters to the array.index()

2017-11-12 Thread Anders Lorentsen

Anders Lorentsen <pha...@gmail.com> added the comment:

I decided to work on this, and I would like some review, as this would be my 
second contribution to cpython. Also, a general question:

As I defined the start and end arguments Py_ssize_t, bigger indexes (more 
negative or more positive) than what can fit in Py_ssize_t will trigger an 
overflow error. This should be OK, though, as other functions with index 
arguments has them as Py_ssize_t - and getarrayitem() itself accepts a 
Py_ssize_t. Or?

While researching this, I discovered that on MS Windows

did not run like it did on Posix. My PR includes this problem and it's fix.

[issue31961] subprocess._execute_child doesn't accept a single PathLike argument for args

2017-11-06 Thread Anders Lorentsen

Anders Lorentsen <pha...@gmail.com> added the comment:

I was able to make a test that reproduces your code, and expectedly fails. Also 
implemented a fix for it. See a temporary diff here: 
https://pastebin.com/C9JWkg0i

However, there is also a specific MS Windows version of _execute_child() (a 
phrase only computer-folks can say out loud without feeling very...wrong...). 
It uses a different method to extract and parse arguments, and it should be 
corrected and tested under windows, before I submit a PR for this.

Also, my test messes up the formatting. Instead of saying "ok", they both 
say "... total 0\nok". I have no idea why.

[issue27623] int.to_bytes() and int.from_bytes(): raise ValueError when bytes count is zero

I updated my patch to account for that second corner case. But ideally, 
shouldn't it rather be accounted for in the function that does the actual 
conversion, that is, in _PyLong_AsByteArray?

[issue27623] int.to_bytes() and int.from_bytes(): raise ValueError when bytes count is zero

2016-07-27 Thread Anders Lorentsen

Anders Lorentsen added the comment:

Isn't it possible to just add a small line of code that checks if length is 
less than or equal to 0, and if it is, call the necessary c functions to have 
python raise a valueerror...? Sorry if this is giving a solution without 
actually submitting the patch - but this is all very new to me. I have never 
contributed to anything yet (fourth year CS-student), and I am as fresh to the 
process as can be. I registered here just now. This seems like an issue I could 
handle.. I just need to take the time to learn about the process of how things 
are done around here.
