[issue13610] On Python parsing numbers.

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

The proposal is to change the definition of numbers literals from X to one that is context-sensitive: X followed by whitespace or a syntactic symbol but not anything else, in particular, not by an identifier_start character. I am +-0 at the moment.

> 1 and@ 2
I presume this is parsed as 1 and @ 2, which is a syntax error.
