* SF bug #1100368: Wrong "type()" syntax in docsRaymond Hettinger2005-08-241-17/+21

| | | | | | SF patch #1057588; other changes make the rest of the patch out of date or otherwise unnecessary (backported from trunk revision 1.188)

| | | | Will backport to 2.3.
* SF bug #805304: super instances don't support item assignmentRaymond Hettinger2004-08-171-0/+6
| | | | | | Document a nuance of super(). It is designed to work well with dotted attribute lookup but not with equivalent implicit lookups using operators or statements.

* Bug 1003935: xrange overflowsTim Peters2004-08-081-9/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added XXX comment about why the undocumented PyRange_New() API function is too broken to be worth the considerable pain of repairing. Changed range_new() to stop using PyRange_New(). This fixes a variety of bogus errors. Nothing in the core uses PyRange_New() now. Documented that xrange() is intended to be simple and fast, and that CPython restricts its arguments, and length of its result sequence, to native C longs. Added some tests that failed before the patch, and repaired a test that relied on a bogus OverflowError getting raised.

* SF bug #997533: "disjunct" should be "disjoint"Raymond Hettinger2004-07-291-3/+3
| | | | | * Use plain wording in docs for id(). * Use normal quotation marks instead of single quotes in the description.
* SF Bug #215126: Over restricted type checking on eval() functionRaymond Hettinger2004-07-021-2/+6
| | | | | | The builtin eval() function now accepts any mapping for the locals argument. Time sensitive steps guarded by PyDict_CheckExact() to keep from slowing down the normal case. My timings so no measurable impact.
