…ations of numeric classes (pythonGH-18111) [bpo-39416](): Document string representations of the Numeric classes This is a change to the specification of the Python language. The idea here is to put sane minimal limits on the Python language's default representations of its Numeric classes. That way "Marty's Robotic Massage Parlor and Python Interpreter" implementation of Python won't do anything too crazy.

[bpo-39416](): Document string representations of the Numeric classes
This is a change to the specification of the Python language.
The idea here is to put sane minimal limits on the Python language's default
representations of its Numeric classes. That way "Marty's Robotic Massage Parlor
and Python Interpreter" implementation of Python won't do anything too
crazy.
