Benjamin Peterson cb2b0e45d4 comply with the evilJavaNamingScheme for attribute names

Benjamin Peterson 692428e77f implement test skipping and expected failures
patch by myself #1034053
2009-03-23 21:50:21 +00:00
Antoine Pitrou f8387af262 Issue #4688: Add a heuristic so that tuples and dicts containing only
untrackable objects are not tracked by the garbage collector. This can
reduce the size of collections and therefore the garbage collection overhead
on long-running programs, depending on their particular use of datatypes.

(trivia: this makes the "binary_trees" benchmark from the Computer Language
Shootout 40% faster)

Jeffrey Yasskin 68d6852006 Backport r69961 to trunk, replacing JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} with
POP_JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} and JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE}_OR_POP. This avoids executing
a POP_TOP on each conditional and sometimes allows the peephole optimizer to
skip a JUMP_ABSOLUTE entirely. It speeds up list comprehensions significantly.

* add abs() to the mathematical equivalent so that it matches the previous line that it is supposed to be equivalent to.
* make one combined example with a negative input.

  A little 2to3 refactoring #3637

  This moves command line logic from refactor.py to a new file called
  main.py.  RefactoringTool now merely deals with the actual fixers and
  refactoring; options processing for example is abstracted out.

  This patch was reviewed by Gregory P. Smith.

Brett Cannon 1eaf0742d8 Move test.test_support.catch_warning() to the warnings module, rename it
catch_warnings(), and clean up the API.

While expanding the test suite, a bug was found where a warning about the
'line' argument to showwarning() was not letting functions with '*args' go
without a warning.

Closes issue 3602.
