Tracked down the issue preventing
TestString::test_large_listfrom passing when compiling with Cython 3.1.*.Specifically, the issue came down to the calculated
num_rowsin_string_repstaying floating point instead of getting cast to an int.I'm not sure whether Cython 3.1.* broke variable shadowing, or optimized out
num_rows = int(num_rows)... or something else. But in any case, we can avoid the floating point operations (and float-typed variable) by switching _string_rep to use the following formula for calculating the celing of integer division:ceil(x / y) = (x + y - 1) // ySince all tests now pass on Cython 3.1.*, this change also removes the upper constraints on Cython.
