* Update get_param() description to reflect changes to the docstring.Barry Warsaw2003-08-191-5/+8
|
* Improvements to set.py:Raymond Hettinger2003-08-171-3/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Relaxed the argument restrictions for non-operator methods. They now allow any iterable instead of requiring a set. This makes the module a little easier to use and paves the way for an efficient C implementation which can take better advantage of iterable arguments while screening out immutables. * Deprecated Set.update() because it now duplicates Set.union_update() * Adapted the tests and docs to include the above changes. * Added more test coverage including testing identities and checking to make sure non-restartable generators work as arguments. Will backport to Py2.3.1 so that the interface remains consistent across versions. The deprecation of update() will be changed to a FutureWarning.
* Incorporate documentation suggestions from feedback on comp.lang.python.Raymond Hettinger2003-08-161-55/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Positive wording for the description of why < and > and = can all be False. * Move to a three column table format that puts long method names side-by-side with their operator equivalents * Mention that KeyError can be raised by Set.pop() and Set.remove(). * Minor tweaks to the examples. Will backport as soon as Fred rebuilds the docs so I can confirm the tables formatted properly

* expose the C API subsection which was hidden from LaTeX in a comment. InSkip Montanaro2003-07-161-22/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | the info conversion the \comment LaTeX macro mapped to a Texinfo @ignore macro. Unfortunately, py2texi.el is not smart enough to avoid generating links to the @ignore'd section, which causes makeinfo to croak. Exposing this text is probably not the most correct thing to do, as this documentation really belongs in the C API manual. This does get the info files generated, however, which is a more practical goal considering the impending release of 2.3rc1.
* Doctest now examines all docstrings by default. Previously, it wouldRaymond Hettinger2003-07-161-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | skip over functions with private names (as indicated by the underscore naming convention). The old default created too much of a risk that user tests were being skipped inadvertently. Note, this change could break code in the unlikely case that someone had intentionally put failing tests in the docstrings of private functions. The breakage is easily fixable by specifying the old behavior when calling testmod() or Tester(). The more likely case is that the silent failure was unintended and that the user needed to be informed so the test could be fixed.
