[Python-Dev] Syntax quirk

 >>> type (3.)
<type 'float'>
 >>> 3..__class__
<type 'float'>
 >>> type(3)
<type 'int'>
 >>> 3.__class__
   File "<stdin>", line 1
     3.__class__
               ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Superficially the last example ought to be legal syntax (and return 
<type 'int'>).
Is it an oversight which could be fixed in a straightforward way, or are 
there reasons why it can't?

I have tested this with Python 2.5 and Python 3.2.

Best wishes
Rob Cliffe
