[New-bugs-announce] [issue8361] Remove assert in functools.total_ordering

[Éric Araujo]

New submission from Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org>:

Hello

The correct behavior of functools.total_ordering depends on a check performed with an assert. Attached patch changes it to a test that always runs.

Since it’s a kind of protocol error, I went for TypeError but you may disagree.

Regards
