Martin Panter added the comment:
The C "_datetime" implementation seems to handle this as documented. But either
way, the "timedelta" range is greater than the "datetime" range, so it seems to
be just a difference in OverflowError messages, not a big practical problem:
Python "datetime" implementation:
>>> import sys
>>> sys.modules["_datetime"] = None
>>> from datetime import *
>>> datetime.max - timedelta.max
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File
"C:\Users\Martin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\lib\datetime.py",
line 1741, in __sub__
return self + -other
File
"C:\Users\Martin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\lib\datetime.py",
line 518, in __neg__
-self._microseconds)
File
"C:\Users\Martin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\lib\datetime.py",
line 430, in __new__
raise OverflowError("timedelta # of days is too large: %d" % d)
OverflowError: timedelta # of days is too large: -1000000000
C "_datetime" implementation:
>>> from datetime import *
>>> datetime.max - timedelta.max
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
OverflowError: date value out of range
