Crash report
What happened?
It's possible to make the interpreter exit with a failed assertion by running the following code:
import difflib
obj = difflib.HtmlDiff(None, None, None, None,)
try:
for x in range(3):
obj._split_line([], None, None)
except:
pass
obj._split_line(list, None, None)Backtrace:
python: Python/generated_cases.c.h:3345: _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault: Assertion `self_o != NULL' failed.
Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
