[Python-Dev] Should collections.Counter check for int? (original) (raw)

I'd prefer Counter to refuse non-numerical values right away as the present behaviour may hide bugs (e.g. a forgotten string->int conversion). Any opinions? (And what about negative values or floats?) Please file a report on bugs.python.org so that there's a record of this issue.

Done: http://bugs.python.org/issue6038
