6fcfa72c63 Correct Barry's fix -- take care of {}.get(0). 1997-10-20 20:10:00 +00:00

320ac331d1 dict_get(): Fixed a couple of stupid mistakes which caused crashes.
Also got rid of some unnecessary code.

c38c5da5d0 dict_get(): New method for item access with different semantics than
__getitem__().  This method never raises an exception; if the key is
not in the dictionary, the second (optional) argument is returned.  If
the second argument is not provided and the key is missing, None is
returned.

mapp_methods: added "get" method.

fd7a0b871f Made lookdict nearly twice as fast, resulting in a 5% overall
improvement of pystone.  Vladimir Marangozov.

5b2121b25f PyObject_Compare can now return an error. Unfortunately, there are a
few places where we don't know how to test for them without losing
speed; don't know yet how to handle that.

037b2205e8 Moved PyObject_{Get,Set}Attr to object.c.
Fixed two 'return NULL' that should be 'return -1'.

3cca24570e Got rid of all the last_name_* bogosities. I don't think the
complexity saved much any more.  A simple benchmark (grail) showed
that there were 3 times as many misses as hits, and the same number of
times again the code was bypassed altogether due to the existence of
setattro/getattro.

(Sorry Jack, all your projects will have to be changed again. :-( )

efb4609c4a Small lookmapping nits:
- remove bogus initialization using uninitialized i
- derive initial incr from hash
- copy mp->ma_table into a local variable

9e5656ca3f Final three poly table entries corrected by Tim Peters.
Reindented the whole table.

16e93a8d59 Changed the lookup algorithm again, based on Reimer Behrends's post.
The table size is now constrained to be a power of two, and we use a
variable increment based on GF(2^n)-{0} (not that I have the faintest
idea what that is :-) which helps avoid the expensive '%' operation.

Some of the entries in the table of polynomials have been modified
according to a post by Tim Peters.

ca756f2a1d Forget keeping track of whether a dictionary contains all interned
string keys.  Just doing a pointer compare before the string compare
(in fact before the hash compare!) is just as fast.

a0a69b8b42 Experimental new implementation of dictionary comparison. This
defines that a shorter dictionary is always smaller than a longer one.
For dictionaries of the same size, the smallest differing element
determines the outcome (which yields the same results as before,
without explicit sorting).
