There was a problem hiding this comment.
Note that signatures for pure-Python versions differ wrt C-coded extension:
>>> import _decimal, _pydecimal
>>> help(_decimal.getcontext().plus)
Help on built-in function plus:
plus(x, /) method of decimal.Context instance
Plus corresponds to the unary prefix plus operator in Python, but applies
the context to the result.
>>> help(_pydecimal.getcontext().plus)
Help on method plus:
plus(a) method of decimal.Context instance
Plus corresponds to unary prefix plus in Python.
The operation is evaluated using the same rules as add; the
operation plus(a) is calculated as add('0', a) where the '0'
has the same exponent as the operand.
>>> ExtendedContext.plus(Decimal('1.3'))
Decimal('1.3')
>>> ExtendedContext.plus(Decimal('-1.3'))
Decimal('-1.3')
>>> ExtendedContext.plus(-1)
Decimal('-1')
If we are going to add slashes - pure-Python version should be fixed. Or vice-versa.

although I'm not a fan of using and I think here we will need ping more core members |
