Fred Drake 2510d22048 Clarify the default buffering for open(). (Comment from Andrew Dalke 
<dalke@bioreason.com>).
 1998-11-02 18:57:34 +00:00
Barry Warsaw b2031f72d3 Document that apply() can now take any sequence in argument 2. 1998-10-01 15:35:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 607f802886 round(): Mark the second (optional) parameter as optional, since it's 
described that way.

setattr():  Clarify that the attribute doesn't need to exist to be set.
 1998-08-24 20:30:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 295da24eaf New section header style. 
Fix up a few synopses.
 1998-08-10 19:42:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5fdd119aba Clarify the + and b mode characters for open() a bit. 1998-07-29 21:05:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a7874d1505 Revert the change of revision 1.30. While it's in general a laudable 
goal to use isinstance(x, y) instead of comparing type(x) to y, it
doesn't make sense to change this in the example code for the type()
builtin...
 1998-06-22 14:07:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 1b0ff2c32f eval() example: Removed final interpreter prompt; other examples don't have 
the empty prompt.
 1998-06-19 21:19:50 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7b7f6688d2 Added a stronger warning about changing the dictionary returned by 
locals().
 1998-06-18 16:45:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 777dcc6b21 Change the description of input() -- it is exactly equivalent to 
eval(raw_input(s)).  The statement about breaking a long expression
over multiple lines is no longer true.
 1998-06-17 15:16:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 6b303b4bdd Signature for dir() omitted the optional argument. 1998-04-16 22:10:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 6251c169c6 Small nits. 
One more index entry.

Be more specific about an exception raised by range().
 1998-04-03 07:15:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 0a73d4db51 Removed reference to ni module. 1998-04-02 18:46:44 +00:00
Fred Drake cce1090d49 Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain, 
works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty
macros.
 1998-03-17 06:33:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 53525379da Logical markup. 1998-03-03 21:56:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 315b5d8a7f In description of __import__, second paragraph, break up the markup for long 
\code{} at each embedded space, so that the words will wrap.  This keeps it
from running off the side of the page, and is only slightly weird.
 1998-02-13 21:26:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous 
checkin of myformat.sty.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
 1998-02-13 06:58:54 +00:00
Fred Drake af8a015c93 Consistency: "{\bf ...}" ==> "\strong{...}" 
"{\em ...}" ==> "\emph{...}"

	      Not at all sure what to do with "{\rm ...}".
	      Leaving it for now.
 1998-01-14 14:51:31 +00:00
Fred Drake fd49a964bc Follow current recommended practice in an example: Use isinstance() to 
perform a type test instead of type(x) == types.FoobarType.  In example
for type().
 1998-01-11 21:15:23 +00:00
