[New-bugs-announce] [issue40760] Dictionary comprehension using older division behavior

[Amol Sharma]

New submission from Amol Sharma <guesswhoas at gmail.com>:

Using comprehension to divide all the values in a dictionary like in the following results in integer division in 3.8.

some_dict = {k: v/5 for k, v in some_dict.items()}

This was solved by changing 5 to 5.0, reflecting behavior from python2. I would have expected to have the use the // operator for integer division.

Please correct me if this is expected behavior!
