To pretty up some numbers stored as strings, I used locale to format
them with commas. I then found the following error:
>>import locale
>>>locale.setlo cale(locale.LC_ ALL, 'English_United States.1252')
'English_United States.1252'
>>locale.format ('%d', float('22440125 00.0000'), grouping = True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#2 8>", line 1, in <module>
locale.format(' %d', float('22440125 00.0000'), grouping = True)
File "C:\Python25\li b\locale.py", line 145, in format
formatted = percent % value
TypeError: int argument required
However, if the number is <= 2**31-1, it works just fine:
>>>locale.forma t('%d', float('22440125 0.0000'), grouping = True)
'224,401,250'
Interestingly, if I first convert the floats to ints, , the function
works just fine, even if the numbers exceed 2**31-1:
>>locale.format ('%d', int(float('2244 012500.0000')), grouping = True)
'2,244,012,500'
Is there an int/long related bug lurking in locale?

Hi,
I have some problems with locale module.
On my workstation, changing locale doesn't have effect:
Python 2.3 (#1, Sep 13 2003, 00:49:11)
on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'nl_NL')

I'm sitting here with a Debian Linux 'Woody' system with the default Python
2.2 installation, and I want the re module to understand that
re.compile(r'\W+'. re.LOCALE) doesn't match my national, accented
characters.
I don't quite understand how the locale module reasons about these things,
and Python doesn't seem to act as other programs on my system. Bug or my
mistake? Here's my environment:

Running into an out of memory error on our data warehouse server. This

Nothing has changed on the server in the last couple of months. I upgraded...

Hello,
I hope someone can illuminate this situation for me.
Here's the nutshell:
1. On start I call locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,''), the getlocale.
2. If this returns "C" or anything without 'utf8' in it, then things start
to go downhill:

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
