[Python-bugs-list] [Bug #111162] 1.6b1 test_math.py unconditionally tests math.rint

[noreply@sourceforge.net]

Bug #111162, was updated on 2000-Aug-05 13:47
Here is a current snapshot of the bug.

Project: Python
Category: Modules
Status: Closed
Resolution: Fixed
Bug Group: Platform-specific
Priority: 7
Summary: 1.6b1 test_math.py unconditionally tests math.rint

Details: math.rint, according to the docs, only exists on certain
platforms (where rint exists in the C libraries). However,
test_math.py unconditionally tests it even on platforms
where it does not exists, such as Windows; this makes a
test failure for the 'math' test inevitable on those platforms.

Comment:
Does this actually cause a test to fail?

Comment:
This was true in 1.6b1, but Guido removed math.rint entirely for 1.6 final.
