Challenging to diagnose bad expressions when using numerical comparison operators. #123
Description
I have an expression where one side of a comparison operator fails (e.g. undeclared reference). The result is a "no matching overload" error, which isn't very helpful. I expect to see the original failure bubble up to the top of the evaluation.
E.g.
python3 -m celpy -n 'bad < 113.0'
ERROR: <input>:1:1 found no matching overload for 'relation_lt' applied to '(<class 'celpy.evaluation.CELEvalError'>, <class 'celpy.celtypes.DoubleType'>)'
| bad < 113.0
| ^
While the offending part of the expression is still in the output, it's still fairly misleading, and could cause code trying to customize error handling to do the wrong thing.
I took a quick gander where the failure occurs, and it seems to be that the builtin comparison operators don't have an overload for the CELEvalError class. Many of the others do. I'm not sure if this was a miss or on purpose.
Either way, hacking this in seemed to fix the problem:
