annotate Python/getplatform.c @ 19051:f20727cc3d0f legacy-trunk

Implement PEP 238 in its (almost) full glory. This introduces: - A new operator // that means floor division (the kind of division where 1/2 is 0). - The "future division" statement ("from __future__ import division) which changes the meaning of the / operator to implement "true division" (where 1/2 is 0.5). - New overloadable operators __truediv__ and __floordiv__. - New slots in the PyNumberMethods struct for true and floor division, new abstract APIs for them, new opcodes, and so on. I emphasize that without the future division statement, the semantics of / will remain unchanged until Python 3.0. Not yet implemented are warnings (default off) when / is used with int or long arguments. This has been on display since 7/31 as SF patch #443474. Flames to /dev/null.
