* | Added some missing index entries, noted by L. Peter Deutsch. | Fred Drake | 2001-12-27 | 1 | -0/+2 |
| | | | | This should be included in Python 2.2.1. | ||||
* | Update to use the notice environment so a multi-paragraph note can be | Fred Drake | 2001-12-14 | 1 | -2/+4 |
| | | | | appropriately marked. | ||||
* | Update information about __del__() & reference cycles for CPython. | Fred Drake | 2001-12-14 | 1 | -7/+18 |
| | | | | | | | This partially fixes SF bug #492619. Fix a typo & use the new notice environment instead of (ab)using the \note and \warning macros. | ||||
* | Work around the problem of spaces after a "}" being dropped by LaTeX2HTML if | Fred Drake | 2001-12-14 | 1 | -5/+5 |
| | | | | | they were represented by newlines in the document source. Partially fixes SF bug #493243. | ||||
* | Fix for | Michael W. Hudson | 2001-12-12 | 1 | -2/+45 |
| | | | | [ #429329 ] actual-parameters *arg, **kws not doc'd | ||||
* | Add a note about yield requiring a __future__ directive. | Fred Drake | 2001-12-12 | 1 | -0/+10 |
| | |||||
* | Clean up a sad sentence in the yield description. | Fred Drake | 2001-12-11 | 1 | -5/+5 |
| | |||||
* | Document generators and the yield statement, avoiding implementation details. | Fred Drake | 2001-12-11 | 2 | -1/+65 |
| | |||||
* | Fix whitespace in example of bad indentation: a comment indicated that one | Fred Drake | 2001-12-11 | 1 | -8/+8 |
| | | | | | | | line was not indented at all, so the example is no longer indented at all. All of the errors being shown remain. Typo: characteru --> character | ||||
* | Add change notes where im_class is discussed, since the exact meaning changes | Fred Drake | 2001-12-07 | 1 | -0/+2 |
| | | | | with Python 2.2. | ||||
* | Correct the description of im_class. (Fred, this is changed in 2.2. | Guido van Rossum | 2001-12-07 | 1 | -6/+5 |
| | | | | Should this be labeled as changed? How?) | ||||
* | Add a note to the description of the interaction between the softspace | Fred Drake | 2001-12-05 | 1 | -9/+12 |
| | | | | | | | attribute of file objects, the print statement, and other file operations. This closes SF bug #484857. Fix minor markup nits. | ||||
* | Import the keyword module instead of relying on our own list of | Guido van Rossum | 2001-12-04 | 1 | -11/+2 |
| | | | | reserved words. No longer need to import string. | ||||
* | Put the keywords back in alphabetical order. Apparently somebody | Guido van Rossum | 2001-12-04 | 1 | -2/+2 |
| | | | | didn't use reswords.py, as the comment clearly states. :-( | ||||
* | Remove most references to __members__ and __methods__, leaving only one pair | Fred Drake | 2001-12-03 | 1 | -8/+1 |
| | | | | | | of references that now state that these attributes have been removed, directing the reader to the dir() function. This closes SF bug #456420. | ||||
* | Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no | Fred Drake | 2001-11-28 | 3 | -11/+11 |
| | | | | | | | | parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the last thing in the enclosing group. These cases were marked inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed. | ||||
* | Fred observes that the typo was not the only problem with this sentence. | Jeremy Hylton | 2001-11-14 | 1 | -1/+1 |

* | typo | Jeremy Hylton | 2001-11-14 | 1 | -2/+2 |
| | |||||
* | When describing "import *", add a level of indirection between "*" and the | Fred Drake | 2001-10-24 | 1 | -3/+17 |
| | | | | | | | | set of names imported (the "public names"), adding a definition of "public names" that describes the use of __all__. This closes SF bug #473986. Flesh out the vague reference to __import__(). | ||||
* | Use the \note and \warning macros where appropriate. | Fred Drake | 2001-10-20 | 2 | -6/+6 |
| | |||||
* | Fix typo reported by Michael Soulier. | Fred Drake | 2001-10-18 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | |||||
* | Removed stray backslash (a typo -- my fault). | Tim Peters | 2001-10-01 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | |||||
* | The description of dictionary comparison was out of date. Rather than | Tim Peters | 2001-10-01 | 1 | -9/+12 |
| | | | | | | try to explain the complex general scheme we actually use now, I decided to spell out only what equality means (which is easy to explain and intuitive), leaving the other outcomes unspecified beyond consistency. | ||||
* | Refer to the objects which define __len__(), __*item__(), and __iter__() | Fred Drake | 2001-10-01 | 1 | -17/+35 |
| | | | | | | as container objects rather than as mapping objects (in the index entries). Change the section heading and intro sentence to be a little more general, since that's how things have actually evolved. | ||||
* | Fix minor usage and consistency nits. | Fred Drake | 2001-09-18 | 1 | -4/+5 |
| | |||||
* | Work around a LaTeX2HTML bug that caused the "m" in "mutable" to be dropped | Fred Drake | 2001-09-10 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | | | | in one place. | ||||
* | SF patch #455966: Allow leading 0 in float/imag literals. | Tim Peters | 2001-08-30 | 1 | -7/+7 |
| | | | | Consequences for Jython still unknown (but raised on Jython-Dev). | ||||
* | Docs for the PEP 264 changes. | Michael W. Hudson | 2001-08-27 | 1 | -11/+23 |
| | |||||
* | Add material about the "r" and "u" prefixes for string literals; should | Fred Drake | 2001-08-14 | 1 | -8/+14 |
| | | | | | | | be reviewed for clarity. Work around a bogosity in the HTML version of the escape sequences table conversion. | ||||
* | Add information about __floordiv__() and __truediv__() methods for | Fred Drake | 2001-08-14 | 1 | -5/+17 |
| | | | | implementing numeric objects in Python. | ||||
* | "Thin" version of floor division docs: add // to the list of operators | Fred Drake | 2001-08-08 | 1 | -3/+3 |
| | | | | | | and //= to the list of other delimiter tokens. I'll work on it again when it's not so late... | ||||
* | User-defined methods *can* contain things other than user-defined functions | Fred Drake | 2001-08-02 | 1 | -1/+2 |
| | | | | as the callable, so use more flexible language. | ||||
* | Explain that __init__() methods do not get to return values. | Fred Drake | 2001-08-02 | 1 | -8/+9 |
| | |||||
* | Removed unnecessary section "Unicode literals"; all the discussion is | Fred Drake | 2001-07-20 | 1 | -6/+1 |
| | | | | | | | already present in the "String literals" section, including comments on the "u" prefix and the additional escape sequences used for Unicode. This relates to SF bug #442526. | ||||
* | Fix typo in description of raw strings: "value" --> "valid" | Fred Drake | 2001-07-20 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | | | | This closes SF bug #443059. | ||||
* | Minor change to match the style guide. | Fred Drake | 2001-07-14 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | |||||
* | Change the grammar productions to use the new productionlist environment; | Fred Drake | 2001-07-06 | 5 | -261/+410 |
| | | | | | this supports a hyperlinked version of the grammar that can make tracking down details and definitions a little easier. | ||||
* | Fix typo | Andrew M. Kuchling | 2001-06-23 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | |||||
* | Remove some bogus trailing whitespace. | Fred Drake | 2001-06-23 | 1 | -2/+2 |
| | |||||
* | Fix minor markup nits. | Fred Drake | 2001-06-23 | 2 | -6/+2 |
| | |||||
* | Use a named reference to another chapter instead of hard coding the | Fred Drake | 2001-06-23 | 1 | -2/+2 |
| | | | | | chapter number. This also makes the reference a hyperlink in the HTML version. | ||||
* | Fix a very minor (but annoying when looking for things!) markup nit. | Fred Drake | 2001-06-23 | 7 | -0/+43 |
| | |||||
* | Add "yeild" to the list of keywords. | Fred Drake | 2001-06-23 | 1 | -2/+18 |
| | | | | Fix a very minor (but annoying when looking for things!) markup nit. | ||||
* | Update to include the license information in a less annoying place. | Fred Drake | 2001-06-20 | 1 | -0/+3 |
| | |||||
* | Update a "Programmer's note" about lambda forms and scoping to reflect | Fred Drake | 2001-06-05 | 1 | -5/+19 |
| | | | | the availability of nested scoping in Python 2.1 and 2.2. | ||||
* | Bring the notes on the relationship between __cmp__(), __eq__(), and | Fred Drake | 2001-05-29 | 1 | -10/+15 |
| | | | | | | | __hash__() up to date (re: use of objects which define these methods as dictionary keys). This closes SF bug #427698. | ||||
* | Fix typo reported in SF bug #427783. | Fred Drake | 2001-05-29 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | |||||
* | Make sure we include all of Python's numeric types in the data model | Fred Drake | 2001-05-14 | 1 | -1/+2 |
| | | | | | | description, so that the introduction of complex is not a surprise. This closes SF bug #423429. | ||||
* | Fix typo reported by David Goodger. This closes SF patch #422383. | Fred Drake | 2001-05-10 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| | |||||
* | Fix the operator precedence table: exponentiation binds tighter than | Fred Drake | 2001-05-09 | 1 | -2/+2 |
| | | | | | | negation. This closes SF bug #421999. |
