This patch is a quick hack to implement one way of
doing PEP 238 (non-integer division).
There are two parts to it.
Part 1: the // operator implements integer division.
Part 2: when "from __future__ import division" is
in effect, the / operator implements float division.
The //= and /= operators are also affected.
(This is part of why I chose // over the keyword 'div';
also because that would require a new keyword.)
The implementation now has three division operations
(of each variation: regular and inplace, and
corresponding opcodes) where it used to have one:
- Division for / without future statement
- FloatDivision for / with future statement
- IntDivision for //
The actual implementations for IntDivision and
FloatDivision are a bit lame:
- (old) Division is unchanged (using nb_division)
- IntDivision just calls Division, so only does the
right thing for ints and longs
- FloatDivision adds 0.0 to the second operand
At some point in the future, to keep NumPy happy,
the "as number" struct should grow extra slots
for the additional operations, and the above
operations should only be used as fallbacks.
(Maybe the fallback for IntDivision should use
the nb_divmod slot as fallback.)
Enjoy! |
