[issue3436] csv.DictReader inconsistency

[Skip Montanaro]

Skip Montanaro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

The consensus seems to be that __init__ shouldn't "magically" read the
header row, even though by not specifying a fieldnames arg that's
exactly what you're telling the DictReader where to find the column
headers.  Given that case, my argument is that we not make any changes
(no getheaders method, etc) since there are at least a couple different
ways mentioned already to do what you want.

[issue2475] Popen.poll always returns None

[reiko]

reiko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

I have also run into this problem.  If you only use p.poll() and never
p.wait(), returncode will always remain None.

roudkerk's workaround doesn't seem to work with the new Popen objects,
at least in python 2.4.  ("unexpected keyword argument '_deadstate'") 
Does anyone have a workaround for subprocess.Popen?  Do I have to switch
to the deprecated popen function(s)?

[issue3458] dict.update() optimisation gives unexpected/invalid results when passed a subclass of DictType

[David Farrar]

New submission from David Farrar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Using a python module that expected me to pass a dictionary as a
parameter to a function, I found that I was getting unexpected results
when using a class which inherits from types.DictType.

The module was passing the instance I had supplied as a parameter to
update() on a newly created dictionary. I wanted my class to present its
methods as items of the dictionary it was pretending to be. Even though
I could see that __getattribute__ had been called to get 'keys', keys()
was not called and I ended up with an empty dictionary.

Trying to find the cause of the problem, I downloaded the python source
package and found that in PyDict_Merge (in Objects/dictobject.c, line
1359), there is an optimisation that is run if PyDict_Check determines
that the parameter we passed is itself a dictionary. The optimisation
takes advantage of the fact that we know how data is stored in the
dictionary and accesses whatever it needs directly.

I had overridden keys() to provide the result I wanted but this
optimisation prevented the code from ever being run, leading to code
that seems like it should work failing with no apparent cause. The only
way I could find around this was to raise AttributeError in
__getattribute__ when getting 'keys', causing dict_update_common to call
PyDict_MergeFromSeq2 in place of PyDict_Merge.

Should the call to PyDict_Check in PyDict_Merge not be replaced with
PyDict_CheckExact ? This would keep the optimisation in place in most
cases, where we know that it is safe, still allowing keys() to be
overridden as you expect.

[issue3366] Add gamma and error functions to math module

[nirinA raseliarison]

nirinA raseliarison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

i wrote pure Python equivalent of the patch and will
post it to the ASPN cookbook as suggested. i'm wondering
if i have to upload the code here too, or just the link
will suffice?

Raymond Hettinger:
> Can you also implement blending of approximations:
> (1-t)*f1(x) + t*f2(x)

i do this with the Python code for now, and my question is:
how to choose the values for the borders?

with erf, for example, one has typically 5 domains
of approximation and one can write something like:

def erf(x):
f = float(x)
if (f == inf):
return 1.0
elif (f == -inf):
return -1.0
elif (f == nan):
return nan
else:
if (abs(x)<0.84375):
return erf1(x)
elif (0.84375<=abs(x)<1.25):
return erf2(x)
elif (1.25<=abs(x)<2.857142):
return erf3(x)
elif (2.857142<=abs(x)<6):
return erf4(x)
elif (abs(x)>=6):
return erf5(x)

implementing the blending of approximations,
one may write:

def blend(x, a, b, f1, f2):
if x < a:
return f1(x)
if x > b:
return f2(x)
return (((b-x)*f1(x))-((a-x)*f2(x)))/(b-a)

and the definition becomes:

def erf(x):
f=float(x)
if (abs(x)<0.83):
return erf1(x)
elif (0.83<=abs(x)<0.85):
return blend(x,0.83,0.85,erf1,erf2)
elif (0.85<=abs(x)<1.24):
return erf2(x)
elif (1.24<=abs(x)<1.26):
return blend(x,1.24,1.26,erf2,erf3)
elif (1.26<=abs(x)<2.84):
return erf3(x)
elif (2.84<=abs(x)<2.86):
return blend(x,2.84,2.86,erf3,erf4)
elif (2.86<=abs(x)<5.99):
return erf4(x)
elif (5.99<=abs(x)<6.01):
return blend(x,5.99,6.01,erf4,erf5)
elif (abs(x)>=6.01):
return erf5(x)

but the choice of these values is somewhat arbitrary.
or i completely misunderstood what you mean by "blending of approximations"!

for erf functions, blending of approximations, as i understand it,
may be implemented easily as the functions are monotonics.
for gammas, this will be a bit complicated, especially for
negative values, where there are extremums for half integers and
discontinuities for integers.
in the other hand, i'm wondering if these coefficients had been chosen
with optimization of discontinuities already taken into account.

[issue3459] optimize bytes.join()

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

When the separator is empty and the sequence only contains one non-empty
item, it is possible to optimize b"".join([...]) by simply returning the
non-empty item.

Since b"".join() is the recommended idiom to join large strings
together, I think it can be useful. I encountered this when trying to
optimize io.BufferedReader.

./python -m timeit -s "l=[b'', b'a' * 1]" "b''.join(l)"

before the patch:
10 loops, best of 3: 2.35 usec per loop
after the patch:
100 loops, best of 3: 0.335 usec per loop

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

Georg's suggestion seems reasonable.  Alternatively, you can just catch 
AttributeError or TypeError.

Lowering the priority to normal and marking as unresolved.  At some 
point, it would be nice to review the whole code base to see if other 
calls to PyErr_Clear() are too aggressive.  In that review, perhaps a 
more clean and general solution with present itself.

[issue3460] PyUnicode_Join could perhaps be simpler

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

In py3k, PyUnicode_Join inherits some complexity from the 2.x days.
However, it seems some of the precautions taken there may not be needed
anymore. Witness the following comment:

/* G.  A codec may be invoked to convert str objects to
 * Unicode, and so it's possible to call back into Python code
 * during PyUnicode_FromObject(), and so it's possible for a sick
 * codec to change the size of fseq (if seq is a list).  Therefore
 * we have to keep refetching the size -- can't assume seqlen
 * is invariant.
 */

Perhaps it would also allow to preallocate the target buffer all at once
(like bytes.join does) rather than resize it incrementally.
Marc-Andre, what do you think?

"opened" be a better wording?

[issue2834] re.IGNORECASE not Unicode-ready

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

Are all those re.ASCII flags mandatory, or are they here just for
theoretical correctness?
For example, the output of "gcc -dumpversion" is certainly plain ASCII.
I don't mind that \d also matches some exotic digit - it just won't happen.

For theoretical correctness. I just don't want to analyze each case
individually and I'm probably not competent for many of them.

[issue3461] smtplib does not fully support IPv6 in EHLO

[Derek Morr]

New submission from Derek Morr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

On an IPv6-only machine, smtplib does not send an IPv6 address in the 
EHLO. It sends "EHLO [0.0.0.0]" instead. For example, on a v6-only 
network with stateless autoconfiguration enabled (a common 
configuration), smtplib will show this error.

Further, SMTP's __init__() method tries to determine the value of EHLO 
parameter before the socket is established. But it can't know what 
value to use before the socket is setup (e.g., should it use a 
hostname, a v4 address literal, or a v6 address literal).

The attached patch moves the self.local_hostname processing into the 
connect() method, and updates it to use IPv6-aware resolver interfaces.

[issue3458] dict.update() optimisation gives unexpected/invalid results when passed a subclass of DictType

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

This is duplicate of http://bugs.python.org/issue1615701 .  The 
check_exact solution was attempted once but it broke code in a subtle 
and hard to find way so it had to be reverted.  For your use case, try 
UserDict instead of subclassing dict.

[issue3453] PyType_Ready doesn't ensure that all bases are ready

[Roger Upole]

Roger Upole <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

If that were the case, it wouldn't need to call PyType_Ready for 
tp_base either.  From stepping thru the code, there are several places 
in the interpreter core that PyType_Ready is called for types whose 
tp_base has not been initialized yet.
