Inconsistance in numerical node behavior

[remram44]

As far as I know, number literals can be one of IntNode, FloatNode, OctaNode, HexaNode, LongNode. However they don't appear in the code or doc, except for IntNode, which works differently because its value is a number instead of str.

So I'm left with:

def get_int_value(node):
    NUMBERS = IntNode, FloatNode, OctaNode, HexaNode, LongNode

    if isinstance(node, NUMBERS):
        if isinstance(node, IntNode):
            return node.value
        else:
            return ast.literal_eval(node.value)
    else:
        raise ValueError

code = RedBaron('a = 12\na = 0xC')
get_int_value(code[0].assign.value), get_int_value(code[1].assign.value)

Hello,

Yes, this is bad, I think that I'm going to switch back to string everywhere and providing a .to_python() method that does a ast.literal.

Thanks for reporting,

Awesome! That'd be great, thanks!

I'll be using that!
