| | | | | Links for 'raise Exception from x' target to 'The raise statement' (7.8) section instead of 'The import statement' (7.11) section. There are more modified links than in the bug report because I searched some other ones which can get the same improvement.

* bpo-43319: Fixed the tutorial on venv about standard library (GH-24740)cmhzc2021-03-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | In the [official tutorial on virtual environment](https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html#creating-virtual-environments) > This will create the tutorial-env directory if it doesn’t exist, and also create directories inside it containing a copy of the Python interpreter, **the standard library**, and various supporting files. According to the actual behavior of `venv` and [PEP 405](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0405/#id15)'s description about virtual environment, no standard library file is included in the virtual environment's directory.

* bpo-37635: Update arg name for seek() in IO tutorial (GH-16147)Kyle Stanley2019-09-141-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Typically, the second positional argument for ``seek()`` is *whence*. That is the POSIX standard name (http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/lseek.3p.html) and the name listed in the documentation for ``io`` module (https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.IOBase.seek). The tutorial for IO is the only location where the second positional argument for ``seek()`` is referred to as *from_what*. I suspect this was created at an early point in Python's history, and was never updated (as this section predates the GitHub repository): ``` $ git grep "from_what" Doc/tutorial/inputoutput.rst:To change the file object's position, use ``f.seek(offset, from_what)``. The position is computed Doc/tutorial/inputoutput.rst:the *from_what* argument. A *from_what* value of 0 measures from the beginning Doc/tutorial/inputoutput.rst:the reference point. *from_what* can be omitted and defaults to 0, using the ``` For consistency, I am suggesting that the tutorial be updated to use the same argument name as the IO documentation and POSIX standard for ``seek()``, particularly since this is the only location where *from_what* is being used. Note: In the POSIX standard, *whence* is technically the third positional argument, but the first argument *fildes* (file descriptor) is implicit in Python. https://bugs.python.org/issue37635
