Guido van Rossum	6083f0e9ce	Use the new struct module's ability to pack and unpack standardized data formats. The _xdr module is no longer used, since struct supports the required IEEE floats and doubles. (I have one doubt about not using _xdr. The struct module doesn't handle Inf, NaN and gradual underflow correctly. If the _xdr module does these things better, it may still have a (small) competitive advantage. On the other hand, since not all platforms support IEEE floating point, it's not clear that it would be a good idea to ever transfer Inf or NaNs. Gradual underflow can be fixed in the struct module.	1997-01-02 22:52:15 +00:00
