From 8d15643a4bbb118a2fc91541d3b02d7aca7953d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Dickinson Date: Sat, 18 Jul 2009 14:43:10 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Merged revisions 74078 via svnmerge from svn+ssh://pythondev@www.python.org/python/branches/py3k ........ r74078 | mark.dickinson | 2009-07-18 15:41:42 +0100 (Sat, 18 Jul 2009) | 5 lines Issue #6431: Fix Fraction comparisons to return NotImplemented when the Fraction type doesn't know how to handle the comparison without loss of accuracy. Also, make sure that comparisons between Fractions and float infinities or nans do the right thing. ........ --- Lib/fractions.py | 62 +++++++++--------- Lib/test/test_fractions.py | 126 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Misc/NEWS | 4 ++ 3 files changed, 162 insertions(+), 30 deletions(-) diff --git a/Lib/fractions.py b/Lib/fractions.py index fcebb4fdd0f..bc7b200ea72 100644 --- a/Lib/fractions.py +++ b/Lib/fractions.py @@ -501,54 +501,56 @@ class Fraction(numbers.Rational): if isinstance(b, numbers.Complex) and b.imag == 0: b = b.real if isinstance(b, float): - return a == a.from_float(b) + if math.isnan(b) or math.isinf(b): + # comparisons with an infinity or nan should behave in + # the same way for any finite a, so treat a as zero. + return 0.0 == b + else: + return a == a.from_float(b) else: - # XXX: If b.__eq__ is implemented like this method, it may - # give the wrong answer after float(a) changes a's - # value.
