Georg Brandl 54d8b680e0 bug [ 1166582 ] IterableUserDict not in docs 2005-06-25 21:03:52 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 31043cd6d8 Clarify that DictMixin is still useful. Only the UserDict class was supplanted. 2005-01-04 21:25:00 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 68804315e0 SF Patch #1093896: miscellaneous doc typos 2005-01-01 00:28:46 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 999b57c872 Fix double word typos. 2003-08-25 04:28:05 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 8ddc176e2e Improve DictMixin.
Replaced docstring with comments.  Prevents subclass contamination.
Added the missing __cmp__() method and a test for __cmp__().
Used try/except style in preference to has_key() followed by a look-up.
Used iteritem() where possible to save creating a long key list and
   to save redundant lookups.
Expanded .update() to look for the most helpful methods first and gradually
   work down to a mininum expected interface.
Expanded documentation to be more clear on how to use the class.

Raymond Hettinger 8a9e8b6d0e Fix bug 575221 referred to dictionary type instead of dict. 2002-06-30 04:32:38 +00:00
Fred Drake d5be3b75dd Add notes pointing out that these classes are kept for backward compatibility
and suggeest that new code that does not require compatibility with older
Python versions subclass dictionary, list, or str.

Fred Drake 2c4f554b78 Fixed a large number of small problems, mostly noted by Detlef Lannert
<lannert@lannert.rz.uni-duesseldorf.de>.

Fred Drake 66c9f0781d Note that the UserString/MutableString classes are far less efficient
than the built-in string types (suggested by Moshe Zadka
<moshez@math.huji.ac.il>).

Clarified what "can be converted to a string" means.

Fixed a few markup nits.

Fred Drake 621d2bee1c Move description of UserString.MutableString to a location more typical
of the arrangement of other modules.

Thomas Wouters f8316638af Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
