operations and special methods apply. Likewise, decimal objects can be
copied, pickled, printed, used as dictionary keys, used as set elements,
compared, sorted, and coerced to another type (such as :class:`float` or
- :class:`long`).
+ :class:`int`).
In addition to the standard numeric properties, decimal floating point
objects also have a number of specialized methods:
a corresponding :class:`Context` method. For example, for a :class:`Context`
instance ``C`` and :class:`Decimal` instance ``x``, ``C.exp(x)`` is
equivalent to ``x.exp(context=C)``. Each :class:`Context` method accepts a
- Python integer (an instance of :class:`int` or :class:`long`) anywhere that a
+ Python integer (an instance of :class:`int`) anywhere that a
Decimal instance is accepted.
