Message138583
The latest patch is based on a relatively stable revision of 3.3. To my
knowledge, _decimal.c and decimal.py are now fully compatible in the
sense of PEP-399.
libmpdec
========
o New test suite with comprehensive tests against decNumber.
o Full support for 32-bit compilers (tested with CompCert).
PEP-399
=======
o cdecimal.c is now called _decimal.c. Instead of importing cdecimal,
_decimal is transparently imported as decimal (if the C version is
available).
o Unified unit tests with 100% code coverage for both decimal.py and
_decimal.c. For _decimal.c, the tests include all failures of
Python API functions (requires special patch for testing).
o deccheck.py now also tests arbitrary input and makes sure that both
modules raise the same exceptions.
o Both modules produce the same pickle output for Decimal and Context.
_decimal.c
==========
o Speed up int/Decimal conversion for integers that fit into a
single word of a PyLongObject (performance gain is around 15%).
o real(), imag(), conjugate(), __complex__() support.
o Fraction and complex comparison support.
o Decimal constructor now accepts lists as well as tuples.
o DecimalTuple support.
o General cleanup and refactoring. The functions for conversions
between Decimal and other numeric types are much cleaner now
and could be used for a PyDec_* API. |
