* Document function attributes for both the function type and the methodBarry Warsaw2001-01-151-0/+38
| | | | | | type. The method documentation also includes a new brief discussion of `bound' vs. `unbound' and why setting an attr on a bound method is a TypeError. Includes Skip's suggested text.
* Added documentation for the xreadlines module & related changes. TheFred Drake2001-01-091-6/+12
| | | | documentation was written by Jeff Epler (thanks!).
* Added information about the interaction of opening a file in append modeFred Drake2001-01-041-1/+6
| | | | | | and seek() in the description of seek(). This closes SF bug #126850.

| | | | Improved version coming soon to a Source Forge near you!
* Added .first{item,value,key}() to dictionaries.Moshe Zadka2000-11-301-0/+12
| | | | | Complete with docos and tests. OKed by Guido.
* Added information about the %r string formatting conversion. Added noteFred Drake2000-11-171-4/+6
| | | | | | | | about the interpretation of radix 0 for int(), and added description of the optional radix argument for long(). Based on comments from Reuben Sumner <rasumner@users.sourceforge.net>. This closes bug #121672.
* Document the proper exception to be raised by I/O operations on closedFred Drake2000-11-061-15/+19
| | | | | | files; error reported by Ng Pheng Siong <ngps@post1.com>. Make sure that various special object attributes are properly indexed.
* Marc-Andre Lemburg <mal@lemburg.com> noted that the encode() string methodFred Drake2000-10-251-0/+1
| | | | was added in 2.0.
* Use \obindex{...} instead of \indexii{...}{type} in many places; this isFred Drake2000-10-041-17/+16
| | | | more consistent with other index entries in the documentation.
* Fixed a number of small problems reported by Detlef LannertFred Drake2000-09-211-1/+1
| | | | <lannert@uni-duesseldorf.de>.
* Clarify that the softspace attribute is used by print for state management,Fred Drake2000-09-201-0/+3
| | | | not as a user-controlled parameter.
* Clarify a number of issues about the file-like object API based onFred Drake2000-09-191-20/+36
| | | | discussion on python-dev.
* Use \shortversion in a number of places.Fred Drake2000-09-141-1/+2
| | | | This partially addresses SourceForge bug #114318.
* Add some index entries to make it easier to find information onFred Drake2000-09-141-0/+5
| | | | %-formatting of strings.
* When referring to namespaces, always say "namespaces" instead ofFred Drake2000-09-121-1/+1
| | | | | | "name spaces". Inconsistency noted by Keith Briggs <keith.briggs@bt.com>.
* Improve a couple of references to the language reference, making themFred Drake2000-09-091-7/+9
| | | | | | | | hyperlinks to relevant sections. Clarify the conditions under which the "softspace" attribute of file-like objects can "just work" (with relation to overriding of attribute access in user-defined classes).
* As pointed out by Denis S. Otkidach <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>, xrange()Fred Drake2000-08-181-14/+15
| | | | | | | | returns an xrange object, not a range object, despite the name of the source file they're implemented in. In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is described as obsolescent.
* Document the range type, as suggested by Denis S. OtkidachFred Drake2000-08-141-4/+24
| | | | <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>.
* Added Marc-Andre Lemburg's documentation for string methods, with someFred Drake2000-08-121-23/+216
| | | | | | | | massaging for markup consistency. This closes SourceForge patch #101063. Added Unicode strings and buffer objects to the list of sequence types. Small markup nits elsewhere.
* Barry's patch to document the new setdefault() method. SlightlyGuido van Rossum2000-08-081-0/+8
| | | | | clarified the summary for default() in the table to indicate the side effect.

* Stop lying about [].pop() being experimental! There is no backing it outFred Drake2000-07-311-4/+3

* Added index entry for "file objects"; this is appearantly referencedFred Drake1999-04-211-4/+5
| | | | | | somewhere in the Reference Manual, and someone tried to locate it via the index. Report on the omission by Stefan Franke <sfranke@cdc-group.com>.
* Correct documentation for <file>.read(); Python makes a seriousFred Drake1999-04-141-6/+8
| | | | | | best-effort to return 'size' bytes. Point out that this may mean multiple fread() calls. Reported by Anders Hammarquist <iko@iko.pp.se> via the Debian crew.

* Document the new list.extend() method. Interesting enough, theBarry Warsaw1998-10-091-0/+6
