As the quoted ticket hints, I have the patches in my tree, and will push the for review (or directly to the repo) when other things in the queue are processed.
QUERY · ISSUE
Add support for stdlib decimal.Decimal
enhancement
I'd like to request adding the decimal standard library to micropython-lib.
https://docs.python.org/3/library/decimal.html
It's particularly useful for parsing and maintaining precision when reading values from peripherals (in my case, analytical balances) and displaying them on a screen without worrying about the issues associated with floating point arithmetic.
CANDIDATE · ISSUE
datetime implementation
Opened the issue to avoid other people trying to port Cpython's pure python datetime
implementation and find out that is blocked by the following micropython issue: https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/3391
That specific datetime implementation needs:
- time.strptime
And cpython tests need:
- decimal.Decimal
- test.support.is_resource_enabled
- test.support.requires_IEEE_754
- test.support.run_with_tz
- random.randrange (aliasing urandom)

Cool, thanks! is there any of the requirements that has not been developed yet?
So, I pushed the baseline CPython files to master, then https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib/pull/234 presents my current patchset on top of that.
randrange() is discussed in https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib/pull/208
Merged to mainline.
Thanks!
This would be nice to have indeed!
