After: CC="gcc -DPY_NO_SHORT_FLOAT_REPR" ./configure && make test_format_testfile in test_float fails with: test.support.TestFailed: Traceback (most recent call last): File "Lib/test/test_float.py", line 341, in test_format_testfile self.assertEqual(fmt % float(arg), rhs) AssertionError: '100000000000.0' != '1e+11' The problem is that for str(float), the new formatting code switches to exponential notation at 1e11, not 1e12; the legacy code does not. A similar issue exists for repr: repr(1e16) should now produce '1e+16'. |
