In other cases the functions currently do not have error cases, but the lack of return value is still a problem in case we want to evolve them in the future and need to report errors. \r\n\r\nWe will use this issue to fix the straightforward ones, while more complicated ones may spawn their own issues.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c!-- gh-linked-prs --\u003e\r\n### Linked PRs\r\n* gh-105185\r\n* gh-105218\n* gh-105219\n* gh-105220\n* gh-105221\n* gh-105222\n* gh-105223\n* gh-105233\n\u003c!-- /gh-linked-prs --\u003e\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/iritkatriel","@type":"Person","name":"iritkatriel"},"datePublished":"2023-06-01T09:35:17.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/105184/cpython/issues/105184"}
