* SF patch 664183 and SF bug 664044: Note that both u'%s' % 'x' andRaymond Hettinger2003-01-131-1/+4
| | | | '%s' % u'x' return a unicode object.

* SF #665570, curses causes interpreter crashNeal Norwitz2003-01-121-1/+2
| | | | | | | The interpreter doesn't crash, but it does call exit() in libncurses. Add a note to this effect. Will backport
* Minor correction and clarification.Fred Drake2003-01-111-1/+3
|
* Remove extra 'types'Neal Norwitz2003-01-101-3/+3
| | | | Change a couple of list -> mylist
* SF bug #652888: bad documentation for the "type" builtinRaymond Hettinger2003-01-101-6/+22
| | | | | | | | | | Clarified that not all types are included. The OP was looking for a StaticMethodType. Also, added a note and example suggesting the use of int,str, etc. instead of IntType, StrType, etc. Renamed the crummy variable name in the example from "list" to "mylist".

* Massive fiddling to reflect that datetimetz and timetz no longer exist.Tim Peters2003-01-091-556/+266
| | | | | | | | | | WARNING: It would be a minor miracle if the LaTeX stuff still worked. s/field/member/ generally everywhere, to conform with most other usage in the docs. s/daylight savings time/daylight saving time/ generally everywhere, because the latter spelling is anally correct.

* Fix some nits Guido brought up last August:Fred Drake2003-01-061-10/+8
| | | | | | - give subsection pages nicer names - shorten some really long table cells; table cells can't wrap in the typeset version of the documentation
* Fix markup so this will format again.Fred Drake2003-01-061-1/+1

* SF bug #592859: os.chmod is underdocumentedRaymond Hettinger2003-01-061-0/+22

* datetime_from_timet_and_us(): ignore leap seconds if the platformTim Peters2003-01-041-20/+34
| | | | | | | localtime()/gmtime() insists on delivering them, + associated doc changes. Redid the docs for datetimtez.astimezone().
* A new implementation of astimezone() that does what we agreed on in allTim Peters2003-01-042-6/+111
| | | | | | cases, plus even tougher tests of that. This implementation follows the correctness proof very closely, and should also be quicker (yes, I wrote the proof before the code, and the code proves the proof <wink>).
* SF bug #655271: Slightly modify locals() docRaymond Hettinger2003-01-041-1/+1
| | | | Clarify the operation of locals().
* SF bug #651149: Review libshelve.tex when possibleRaymond Hettinger2003-01-041-6/+6
| | | | Minor fixes to markup, spelling, parameter names, and abbreviations.
* Replaced the flawed "local time" example tzinfo class with the gutsTim Peters2003-01-031-13/+39
| | | | of Guido's later Local.py (from the datetime sandbox).
* The tzinfo methods utcoffset() and dst() must return a timedelta objectTim Peters2003-01-022-21/+23
| | | | | | (or None) now. In 2.3a1 they could also return an int or long, but that was an unhelpfully redundant leftover from an earlier version wherein they couldn't return a timedelta. TOOWTDI.
* Allow list sort's comparison function to explicitly be None. See SF patchSkip Montanaro2003-01-021-5/+6
| | | | 661092.
* astimezone() internals: if utcoffset() returns a duration, complain ifTim Peters2003-01-021-13/+19
| | | | dst() returns None (instead of treating that as 0).
* Add some version info for new methods and classNeal Norwitz2003-01-021-0/+3

* A quicker astimezone() implementation, rehabilitating an earlierTim Peters2003-01-011-6/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | suggestion from Guido, along with a formal correctness proof of the trickiest bit. The intricacy of the proof reveals how delicate this is, but also how robust the conclusion: correctness doesn't rely on dst() returning +- one hour (not all real time zones do!), it only relies on: 1. That dst() returns a (any) non-zero value if and only if daylight time is in effect. and 2. That the tzinfo subclass implements a consistent notion of time zone. The meaning of "consistent" was a hidden assumption, which is now an explicit requirement in the docs. Alas, it's an unverifiable (by the datetime implementation) requirement, but so it goes.

* Further cleanup of exceptions. All interpolation-related exceptionsFred Drake2002-12-311-3/+12
| | | | | now derive from InterpolationError, which is not raised directly (only subclasses get raised). This matches what the docs already said.
* Spelling fixRaymond Hettinger2002-12-311-1/+1

* Add markup for time object.Raymond Hettinger2002-12-311-22/+23
| | | | | Cleanup whitespace. Fix unbalanced parenthesis.
* Removed the now-untrue (or soon-to-be untrue) part of the astimezone()Tim Peters2002-12-311-10/+7
| | | | | | | | docs. Replaced it with an XXX block, because the hoped-for treatment of DST endcases remains unclear (Guido doesn't really like raising an exception when it's impossible to deliver a correct result, but so far I have no way in hand to consistently deliver a defined incorrect result either).
