The result of :func:`operator.index` now always has exact type :class:`int`.
Previously, the result could have been an instance of a subclass of ``int``.
bpo-40792: Make the result of PyNumber_Index() always having exact type int. (GH-20443) Previously, the result could have been an instance of a subclass of int. Also revert bpo-26202 and make attributes start, stop and step of the range object having exact type int. Add private function _PyNumber_Index() which preserves the old behavior of PyNumber_Index() for performance to use it in the conversion functions like PyLong_AsLong(). 2020-05-28 04:33:45 -03:00			The result of :func:`operator.index` now always has exact type :class:`int`.
