Description
Unless I'm mistaken there's no way to pass an infinity through to C# from Python?
namespace Demo {
public static class TestDoubleCast {
public static double PassThru(double arg) {
return arg;
}
}
}In [3]: from Demo import TestDoubleCast
In [4]: TestDoubleCast.PassThru(1)
Out[4]: 1.0
In [5]: TestDoubleCast.PassThru(3.14159)
Out[5]: 3.14159
In [6]: TestDoubleCast.PassThru(inf)

OverflowError: value too large to convertIt would be very useful if the casting machinery could special case infinities so that you could create them from Python and they could be passed as arguments to methods expecting a System.Double
