Content
A somewhat related comment about formatting of infs and nans: I think that a formatted nan should never include a sign, even when it's explicitly asked for. For example: "%+e" % float('nan') should give "nan" rather than "+nan" or "-nan". (In contrast, infinities should, and currently do, get the requested sign.)
