| | | | | | | key provides C support for the decorate-sort-undecorate pattern. reverse provide a stable sort of the list with the comparisions reversed. * Amended the docs to guarantee sort stability.
* Initial checkin of docs for Lib/platform.py .Brett Cannon2003-10-142-0/+224
| | | | | | Closes patch #785752 and bug #726911. Should be backported after correctness and such has been verified by Fred.

| | | | Adopt Jeremy Fincher's suggested function name, "any", instead of "some".
* SF bug #812202: randint is always evenRaymond Hettinger2003-10-051-0/+12
| | | | | | | * Added C coded getrandbits(k) method that runs in linear time. * Call the new method from randrange() for ranges >= 2**53. * Adds a warning for generators not defining getrandbits() whenever they have a call to randrange() with too large of a population.
* Make the fieldnames argument optional in the DictReader. If self.fieldnamesSkip Montanaro2003-10-031-4/+15
| | | | | | | | | is None, the next row read is used as the fieldnames. In the common case, this means the programmer doesn't need to know the fieldnames ahead of time. The first row of the file will be used. In the uncommon case, this means the programmer can set the reader's fieldnames attribute to None at any time and have the next row read as the next set of fieldnames, so a csv file can contain several "sections", each with different fieldnames.
