Christian Heimes <[email protected]> added the comment:
I'm slightly concerned about hashability of slice objects. Currently the slice
constructor does not ensure that any slice parameter is a number. You can do
horrible stuff like this:
>>> slice({})
slice(None, {}, None)
which of course fails later on:
>>> [][slice({})]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: slice indices must be integers or None or have an __index__ method
Would it be possible to move type checks to slice constructor?
