Guido van Rossum 3dd7f3fef0 Added doc strings for methods and a new pop() method. 1998-06-30 15:36:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4281258b5f Minor cleanup by Tim after my changes:
+ Took the "list" argument out of the other functions that no longer need
it.  This speeds things up a little more.

+ Small comment changes in accord with that.

+ Exploited the now-safe ability to cache values in the partitioning loop.
Makes no timing difference on my flavor of Pentium, but this machine ran out
of registers 12 iterations ago.  It should yield a small speedup on a RISC
machine, and not hurt in any case.

Guido van Rossum 4c4e7df755 Tim's latest, with some of my changes (also a TP suggestion) added:
instead of testing whether the list changed size after each
comparison, temporarily set the type of the list to an immutable list
type.  This should allow continued use of the list for legitimate
purposes but disallows all operations that can change it in any way.
(Changes to the internals of list items are not caught, of cause;
that's not possible to detect, and it's not necessary to protect the
sort code, either.)

Guido van Rossum a119c0dd5e Tim's revision of the previous patch. He also added some sparts to
the median-of-three code to get a few percent back.

Guido van Rossum ae621ff7b7 Guard against changes in the list size during a compare or sort. 1998-05-28 20:18:46 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 82e6a8f80d Quicksort retuned by Tim Peters. 1998-04-28 13:17:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum fb376dee55 Use Py_Repr{Enter,Leave} to display recursive lists in finite space.
(Jeremy will hardly recognize his patch :-)
1998-04-10 22:47:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 044b9dc1d7 Add back some safeguards on the index elements that were lost in the
last patch.  Dave Ascher found a case that dumps core without these:

def myComparison(x,y):
    return cmp(x%3,y%7)

z = range(12)
z.sort(myComparison)

Guido van Rossum 24e62e2c7c Modified quicksort by Raymund Galvin, after studying the GNU libg++
quicksort.  This should be much faster if there are lots of
duplicates, and otherwise at least as good.
1997-12-10 15:14:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a27d112213 Rename roundup() to roundupsize(), as there's a macro roundup() in the
sys/types.h header on many systems that may get pulled in (through
WANT_SIGFPE_HANDLER which pulls in signal.h).
1997-08-25 18:36:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5d8123f34a Reordered list of methods to hopefully put the most frequently used
ones near the front.

Guido van Rossum 19700b6a98 Add casts to CMPERROR macro to silence SunPro compiler warnings about
integer overflow in << operator.
1997-03-05 00:45:43 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cc15b42e59 Change comment about MINSIZE -- 10 is optimal for Python. 1996-12-16 03:32:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3176bb1df2 Some more tuning of quicksort: use pointers instead of indexing. 1996-12-11 23:57:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3f236dee3a Added new quicksort implementation, tailored to sorting arrays of
object pointers.  Should be a bit faster than the C library's qsort(),
and doesn't have the prohibition on recursion that Solaris qsort() has
in the threaded version of their C library.

Thanks to discussions with Tim Peters.
1996-12-10 23:55:39 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 6cd2fe043b Correct problems found by THINK C 6.0 1994-08-29 12:45:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a3d78fb268 * posixmodule.c: added set{uid,gid}.
* {tuple,list,mapping,array}object.c: call printobject with 0 for flags
* compile.c (parsestr): use quote instead of '\'' at one crucial point
* arraymodule.c (array_getattr): Added __members__ attribute
1993-11-10 09:23:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum dc4b93db70 * listobject.c (list_ass_slice): XDECREF instead of DECREF so
setlistslice() can be used to cut the unused part out of a freshly made
  slice (as done by bagof()).  [needed by the next mod!]
* structural changes to bagof(), map() etc.
1993-10-27 14:56:44 +00:00
Sjoerd Mullender a9c3c22c33 * Extended X interface: pixmap objects, colormap objects visual objects,
image objects, and lots of new methods.
* Added counting of allocations and deallocations of builtin types if
  COUNT_ALLOCS is defined.  Had to move calls to NEWREF down in some
  files.
* Bug fix in sorting lists.
1993-10-11 12:54:31 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1fc238a813 Minor fixes / changes for Mac compatibility. 1993-07-29 08:25:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 234f942aef * Added gmtime/localtime/mktime and SYSV timezone globals to timemodule.c.
Added $(SYSDEF) to its build rule in Makefile.
* cgensupport.[ch], modsupport.[ch]: removed some old stuff.  Also
  changed files that still used it...  And made several things static
  that weren't but should have been...  And other minor cleanups...
* listobject.[ch]: add external interfaces {set,get}listslice
* socketmodule.c: fix bugs in new send() argument parsing.
* sunaudiodevmodule.c: added flush() and close().
1993-06-17 12:35:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bf80e5407f * stdwinmodule.c: various new commands: setwin{pos,size},
listfontnames, bitmap ops.
* listobject.c: use mkvalue() when possible; avoid weird error when
  calling append() without args.
* modsupport.c: new feature in getargs(): if the format string
  contains a semicolor the string after that is used as the error
  message instead of "bad argument list (format %s)" when there's an
  error.
1993-02-08 15:49:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 34679b7661 * Added Fixcprt.py: script to fix copyright message.

* thread.c: added copyright notice.

* Add declaration of inittab to import.h
* sysmodule.c: added sys.builtin_module_names
* xxmodule.c, xxobject.c: fix minor errors
1993-01-26 13:33:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a2b7f40513 * Configure.py: use #!/usr/local/bin/python
* posixmodule.c: move extern function declarations to top
* listobject.c: cmp() arguments must be void* if __STDC__
* Makefile, allobjects.h, panelmodule.c, modsupport.c: get rid of
  strdup() -- it is a portability risk
* Makefile: enclosed ranlib command in parentheses for Sequent Make
  which aborts if the command is not found even if '-' is present
* timemodule.c: time() returns a floating point number, in microsecond
  precision if BSD_TIME is defined.
1993-01-04 09:09:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7066dd75c5 * Makefile: added IMGFILE; moved some stuff around.
* flmodule.c: added some missing functions; changed readonly flags of
  some data members based upon FORMS documentation.
* listobject.c: fixed int/long arg lint bug (bites PC compilers).
* several: removed redundant print methods (repr is good enough).
* posixmodule.c: added (still experimental) process group functions.
1992-09-17 17:54:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ba3690cd09 Remove outdated warning in comments. 1992-09-03 20:44:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1e28e5e596 * renamed malloc.h mymalloc.h, and added MALLARG as the type of the
argument to malloc() (size_t or unsigned int)

* listobject.c: check for overflow of the size of the object,
  so things like range(0x7fffffff) will raise MemoryError instead
  of calling malloc() with -4 (and then crashing -- malloc's fault)
1992-08-19 16:46:30 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ff4949eeee * Makefile: cosmetics
* socketmodule.c: get rid of makepair(); fix makesocketaddr to fix
  broken recvfrom()
* socketmodule: get rid of getStrarg()
* ceval.h: move eval_code() to new file eval.h, so compile.h is no
  longer needed.
* ceval.c: move thread comments to ceval.h; always make save/restore
  thread functions available (for dynloaded modules)
* cdmodule.c, listobject.c: don't include compile.h
* flmodule.c: include ceval.h
* import.c: include eval.h instead of ceval.h
* cgen.py: add forground(); noport(); winopen(""); to initgl().
* bltinmodule.c, socketmodule.c, fileobject.c, posixmodule.c,
  selectmodule.c:
  adapt to threads (add BGN/END SAVE macros)
* stdwinmodule.c: adapt to threads and use a special stdwin lock.
* pythonmain.c: don't include getpythonpath().
* pythonrun.c: use BGN/END SAVE instead of direct calls; also more
  BGN/END SAVE calls etc.
* thread.c: bigger stack size for sun; change exit() to _exit()
* threadmodule.c: use BGN/END SAVE macros where possible
* timemodule.c: adapt better to threads; use BGN/END SAVE; add
  longsleep internal function if BSD_TIME; cosmetics
