There appears to be an issue on Windows with CPython >= 3.6,
sys.stdout.flush() raises an exception:
OSError: [WinError 87] The parameter is incorrect
It works fine to just catch and ignore the error on the flush line. Tested
on Windows 10 x64 1803 (Build 17134.228), Python 3.6.4 amd64.
This patches avoids multiplying with negative powers-of-10 when parsing
floating-point values, when those powers-of-10 can be exactly represented
as a positive power. When represented as a positive power and used to
divide, the resulting float will not have any rounding errors.
The issue is that mp_parse_num_decimal will sometimes not give the closest
floating representation of the input string. Eg for "0.3", which can't be
represented exactly in floating point, mp_parse_num_decimal gives a
slightly high (by 1LSB) result. This is because it computes the answer as
3 * 0.1, and since 0.1 also can't be represented exactly, multiplying by 3
multiplies up the rounding error in the 0.1. Computing it as 3 / 10, as
now done by the change in this commit, gives an answer which is as close to
the true value of "0.3" as possible.
Changes made:
- make use of MP_OBJ_TO_PTR and MP_OBJ_FROM_PTR where necessary
- fix shadowing of index variable i, renamed to j
- fix type of above variable to size_t to prevent comparison warning
- fix shadowing of res variable
- use "(void)" instead of "()" for functions that take no arguments
This commit implements PEP479 which disallows raising StopIteration inside
a generator to signal that it should be finished. Instead, the generator
should simply return when it is complete.
See https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0479/ for details.
This part is functionally similar to STM32F767xx (they share a datasheet)
so support is generally comparable. When adding board support the
stm32f767_af.csv and stm32f767.ld should be used.
In 0e80f345f8 the inplace operations __iadd__
and __isub__ were made unconditionally available, so the comment about this
section is changed to reflect that.
