Long Integer Objects¶
-
PyTypeObject
PyLong_Type
¶ This instance of
PyTypeObject
represents the Python long integer type. This is the same object aslong
andtypes.LongType
.
-
int
PyLong_Check
(PyObject *p)¶ Return true if its argument is a
PyLongObject
or a subtype ofPyLongObject
.Changed in version 2.2: Allowed subtypes to be accepted.
-
int
PyLong_CheckExact
(PyObject *p)¶ Return true if its argument is a
PyLongObject
, but not a subtype ofPyLongObject
.New in version 2.2.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromLong
(long v)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Return a new
PyLongObject
object from v, or NULL on failure.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromUnsignedLong
(unsigned long v)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Return a new
PyLongObject
object from a Cunsigned long
, or NULL on failure.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromSsize_t
(Py_ssize_t v)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Return a new
PyLongObject
object from a CPy_ssize_t
, or NULL on failure.New in version 2.6.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromSize_t
(size_t v)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Return a new
PyLongObject
object from a Csize_t
, or NULL on failure.New in version 2.6.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromLongLong
(PY_LONG_LONG v)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Return a new
PyLongObject
object from a Clong long
, or NULL on failure.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromUnsignedLongLong
(unsigned PY_LONG_LONG v)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Return a new
PyLongObject
object from a Cunsigned long long
, or NULL on failure.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromDouble
(double v)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Return a new
PyLongObject
object from the integer part of v, or NULL on failure.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromString
(char *str, char **pend, int base)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Return a new
PyLongObject
based on the string value in str, which is interpreted according to the radix in base. If pend is non-NULL, *pend will point to the first character in str which follows the representation of the number. If base is0
, the radix will be determined based on the leading characters of str: if str starts with'0x'
or'0X'
, radix 16 will be used; if str starts with'0'
, radix 8 will be used; otherwise radix 10 will be used. If base is not0
, it must be between2
and36
, inclusive. Leading spaces are ignored. If there are no digits,ValueError
will be raised.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromUnicode
(Py_UNICODE *u, Py_ssize_t length, int base)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Convert a sequence of Unicode digits to a Python long integer value. The first parameter, u, points to the first character of the Unicode string, length gives the number of characters, and base is the radix for the conversion. The radix must be in the range [2, 36]; if it is out of range,
ValueError
will be raised.New in version 1.6.
Changed in version 2.5: This function used an
int
for length. This might require changes in your code for properly supporting 64-bit systems.
-
PyObject*
PyLong_FromVoidPtr
(void *p)¶ - Return value: New reference.
Create a Python integer or long integer from the pointer p. The pointer value can be retrieved from the resulting value using
PyLong_AsVoidPtr()
.New in version 1.5.2.
Changed in version 2.5: If the integer is larger than LONG_MAX, a positive long integer is returned.
-
long
PyLong_AsLong
(PyObject *pylong)¶ Return a C
long
representation of the contents of pylong. If pylong is greater thanLONG_MAX
, anOverflowError
is raised and-1
will be returned.
-
long
PyLong_AsLongAndOverflow
(PyObject *pylong, int *overflow)¶ Return a C
long
representation of the contents of pylong. If pylong is greater thanLONG_MAX
or less thanLONG_MIN
, set *overflow to1
or-1
, respectively, and return-1
; otherwise, set *overflow to0
. If any other exception occurs (for example a TypeError or MemoryError), then-1
will be returned and *overflow will be0
.New in version 2.7.
-
PY_LONG_LONG
PyLong_AsLongLongAndOverflow
(PyObject *pylong, int *overflow)¶ Return a C
long long
representation of the contents of pylong. If pylong is greater thanPY_LLONG_MAX
or less thanPY_LLONG_MIN
, set *overflow to1
or-1
, respectively, and return-1
; otherwise, set *overflow to0
. If any other exception occurs (for example a TypeError or MemoryError), then-1
will be returned and *overflow will be0
.New in version 2.7.
-
Py_ssize_t
PyLong_AsSsize_t
(PyObject *pylong)¶ Return a C
Py_ssize_t
representation of the contents of pylong. If pylong is greater thanPY_SSIZE_T_MAX
, anOverflowError
is raised and-1
will be returned.New in version 2.6.
-
unsigned long
PyLong_AsUnsignedLong
(PyObject *pylong)¶ Return a C
unsigned long
representation of the contents of pylong. If pylong is greater thanULONG_MAX
, anOverflowError
is raised.
-
PY_LONG_LONG
PyLong_AsLongLong
(PyObject *pylong)¶ Return a C
long long
from a Python long integer. If pylong cannot be represented as along long
, anOverflowError
is raised and-1
is returned.New in version 2.2.
-
unsigned PY_LONG_LONG
PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLong
(PyObject *pylong)¶ Return a C
unsigned long long
from a Python long integer. If pylong cannot be represented as anunsigned long long
, anOverflowError
is raised and(unsigned long long)-1
is returned.New in version 2.2.
Changed in version 2.7: A negative pylong now raises
OverflowError
, notTypeError
.
-
unsigned long
PyLong_AsUnsignedLongMask
(PyObject *io)¶ Return a C
unsigned long
from a Python long integer, without checking for overflow.Returns
(unsigned long)-1
on error. UsePyErr_Occurred()
to disambiguate.New in version 2.3.
-
unsigned PY_LONG_LONG
PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLongMask
(PyObject *io)¶ Return a C
unsigned long long
from a Python long integer, without checking for overflow.Returns
(unsigned PY_LONG_LONG)-1
on error. UsePyErr_Occurred()
to disambiguate.New in version 2.3.
-
double
PyLong_AsDouble
(PyObject *pylong)¶ Return a C
double
representation of the contents of pylong. If pylong cannot be approximately represented as adouble
, anOverflowError
exception is raised and-1.0
will be returned.
-
void*
PyLong_AsVoidPtr
(PyObject *pylong)¶ Convert a Python integer or long integer pylong to a C
void
pointer. If pylong cannot be converted, anOverflowError
will be raised. This is only assured to produce a usablevoid
pointer for values created withPyLong_FromVoidPtr()
.New in version 1.5.2.
Changed in version 2.5: For values outside 0..LONG_MAX, both signed and unsigned integers are accepted.
