为什么2 ** 1024工作而2 **（2048/2）导致OverflowError？

Question

当我运行代码

a = 2**(2028/2)*1023
print("a is",a)

b = 2**(2029/2)*1023
print("b is",b)

c = 2**(2028/2)*1024
print("c is",c)

d = 2**(1014)*1024
print("d is",d)

e = 2**(2048)
print("e is",e)

g = 2**(1024)
print("g is",g)

h = 2**(2048/2)
print("h is",h)

输出为：

a is 1.795937575160302e+308
b is inf
c is inf
d is 179769313486231590772930519078902473361797697894230657273430081157732675805500963132708477322407536021120113879871393357658789768814416622492847430639474124377767893424865485276302219601246094119453082952085005768838150682342462881473913110540827237163350510684586298239947245938479716304835356329624224137216

OverflowError: (34, 'Result too large')

c应该与d相同，但不相同。g和h相同。为什么？有一种解决方法，可以让您计算2**(2048/2)和2**(2028/2)*1024准确？我认为2048不会太大，因为e的计算没有任何错误。

Answer 1

不同之处在于它2048/2是一个浮点数，而不是一个整数。因此，结果将被评估为浮点数，并且浮点数的范围有限。

从而：

>>> 2**1024.0
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
OverflowError: (34, 'Result too large')

>>> 2**1024

>>> float(2**1024)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
OverflowError: int too large to convert to float

但是，如果仅使用整数：

>>> 2**(2048//2)
179769313486231590772930519078902473361797697894230657273430081157732675805500963132708477322407536021120113879871393357658789768814416622492847430639474124377767893424865485276302219601246094119453082952085005768838150682342462881473913110540827237163350510684586298239947245938479716304835356329624224137216
