<div dir="ltr">Looking at <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number</a> it seems that Integer is "special" -- every other number type is listed as "<adjective> numbers" (e.g. rational numbers, complex numbers) but integers are listed as "Integers". So let's just switch it to that, and keep Integral as an alias for backwards compatibility. I don't think it's a huge problem to fix this in 3.7b2, if someone wants to do the work.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Feb 19, 2018 at 9:53 PM, Stephen J.

</span>I would guess so. This is the same idiom we use when we call<br>
[1, 2, 3] a "truth-y".<br>
