The C99 and POSIX standards require strtod() to accept all these spellings (case-insensitively): "inf", "+inf", "-inf", "infinity", "+infinity", "-infinity". However, pre-C99 systems might accept only some or none of these, and apparently Windows still doesn't accept "inf". To avoid surprising cross-platform behavioral differences, manually check for each of these spellings if strtod() fails. We were previously handling just "infinity" and "-infinity" that way, but since C99 is most of the world now, it seems likely that applications are expecting all these spellings to work. Per bug #8355 from Basil Peace. It turns out this fix won't actually resolve his problem, because Python isn't being this careful; but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be. |
