[issue23017] string.printable.isprintable() returns False

Akira Li added the comment: C standard defines locale-specific *printing characters* that are [ -~] in C locale for implementations that use 7-bit US ASCII character set i.e., SP (space, 0x20) is a printing character in C (isprint() returns nonzero). There is isgraph() function that returns

Re: How to make subprocess run for 60 sec?

It's in C, and is the product of considerable real-world use. It exits almost immediately after its subprocess exits, FWIW. -- Akira -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: time.monotonic() roll over

()) that allows us to choose whether we need a relative delay (e.g., kill a subprocess if it hasn't finished in 10 seconds) or an absolute deadline (e.g., these lights should be on 9pm-6am local time). *Both* use cases are valid. -- Akira -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

[issue22356] mention explicitly that stdlib assumes gmtime(0) epoch is 1970

Akira Li added the comment: Alexander Belopolsky added the comment: I've provide the direct quote from *C* standard ... I understand that C standard uses the word encoding, but it does so for a reason that is completely unrelated to the choice of epoch. Encoding is how the bytes in memory

[issue22356] mention explicitly that stdlib assumes gmtime(0) epoch is 1970

Akira Li added the comment: Alexander Belopolsky added the comment: 1. It is not the job of the time module documentation to warn about many functions in the stdlib. What are these functions, BTW? The e-mail linked in the first message of this issue msg226539 enumerates some

[issue22356] mention explicitly that stdlib assumes gmtime(0) epoch is 1970

Akira Li added the comment: Alexander Belopolsky added the comment: In the context of Python library documentation, the word encoding strongly suggests that you are dealing with string/bytes. The situation may be different in C. If you want to refer to something that is defined
