Hi Richard,
I would say that I have enough code that does division of numbers that might be integers that expect it to be relatively efficient as floats, and I suspect so do others, that the backwards breaks would be significant.
Could I please see an example? This is a real question, by now I ran my prototyped interpreter through quite some libraries, and none made problems like this. Real world examples I am talking about. Sure, I can easily code an approximation for pi which goes out of hand quickly, but doing this in Python would be just wrong unless you are writing a text book. Cheers Martin
