Eric Smith 0923d1d8d7 The other half of Issue #1580: use short float repr where possible.
Addresses the float -> string conversion, using David Gay's code which
was added in Mark Dickinson's checkin r71663.

Also addresses these, which are intertwined with the short repr
changes:

- Issue #5772: format(1e100, '<') produces '1e+100', not '1.0e+100'
- Issue #5515: 'n' formatting with commas no longer works poorly
    with leading zeros.
- PEP 378 Format Specifier for Thousands Separator: implemented
    for floats.
2009-04-16 20:16:10 +00:00
Mark Dickinson b08a53a99d Issue #1580: use short float repr where possible.
- incorporate and adapt David Gay's dtoa and strtod
   into the Python core
 - on platforms where we can use Gay's code (almost
   all!), repr(float) is based on the shortest
   sequence of decimal digits that rounds correctly.
 - add sys.float_repr_style attribute to indicate
   whether we're using Gay's code or not
 - add autoconf magic to detect and enable SSE2
   instructions on x86/gcc
 - slight change to repr and str:  repr switches
   to exponential notation at 1e16 instead of
   1e17, str switches at 1e11 instead of 1e12

  _warnings was importing itself to get an attribute. That's bad if warnings gets
  called in a thread that was spawned by an import itself.

  Last part to close #1665206.

  The cgitb module had imports in its functions. This can cause deadlock with the
  import lock if called from within a thread that was triggered by an import.

  Partially fixes issue #1665206.

  Add import_function method to test.test_support, and modify a number of
  tests that expect to be skipped if imports fail or functions don't
  exist to use import_function and import_module.  The ultimate goal is
  to change regrtest to not skip automatically on ImportError.  Checking
  in now to make sure the buldbots don't show any errors on platforms
  I can't direct test on.

  A few more test skips via import_module, and change import_module to
  return the error message produced by importlib, so that if an import
  in the package whose import is being wrapped is what failed the skip
  message will contain the name of that module instead of the name of the
  wrapped module.  Also fixed formatting of some previous comments.

  Issue #5512: speed up the long division algorithm for Python longs.
  The basic algorithm remains the same; the most significant speedups
  come from the following three changes:

    (1) normalize by shifting instead of multiplying and dividing
    (2) the old algorithm usually did an unnecessary extra iteration of
        the outer loop; remove this.  As a special case, this means that
        long divisions with a single-digit result run twice as fast as
        before.
    (3) make inner loop much tighter.

  Various benchmarks show speedups of between 50% and 150% for long
  integer divisions and modulo operations.
