__complex__/__int__/__float__/__round__

[flying-sheep]

can we do those?

[flying-sheep]

no we can’t 😢

TypeError: __int__ returned non-int (type function)

[jacobbridges]

Could you provide a use case?

[flying-sheep]

a currently open notebook:

sorted(acc, key=lambda a: int(a[3:]))

should be

sorted(acc, key=int(_[3:]))

[jacobbridges]

Ah, I see. We could investigate adding it as a feature.

[Digenis]

Called to implement the built-in functions complex(), int(), float() and round().
Should return a value of the appropriate type.

This similar to kachayev#65
I already explain there.
We can't do this with all magic methods.

I think we should add to the documentation a sentence
saying that _ requires good knowledge of the python data model

Thanks @Digenis for the insight. I will read through the python data model again and refresh my memory before updating the documentation.
