Prior to gh-11952, several standard library functions that expected integer arguments would nevertheless silently accept (and truncate) non-integer arguments. This behaviour was deprecated in gh-11952, and removed in gh-15636.
However, it may be possible to interpret some non-integer numeric types (such as
decimal.Decimal
s) as integers if they contain no fractional part. Implement__index__
fordecimal.Decimal
, returning an integer representation of the value if it does not contain a fractional part or raising aTypeError
if it does.decimal.Decimal
s as integers if no precision would be lost #102791
