There's definitely some bugs in this area of the range object code though: >>> x = range(2**33, 2) >>> len(x) 0 >>> x[0] Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in IndexError: range object index out of range
Hmm. I'm not seeing the bug here. What am I missing?
Eh, brain explosion from typing too late at night. The experiment I actually meant to try was:
x = range(0, 2**33, 2) len(x) Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in OverflowError: Python int too large to convert to C ssize_t x[0] Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in OverflowError: Python int too large to convert to C ssize_t
The error message in the latter case is thoroughly confusing (although it is now clearer what is causing it).
Cheers, Nick.
