Skip Montanaro a2a07bce89 fix a couple nits with my use of ReST 2002-09-30 15:23:01 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6b3db551be Disable building of the fpectl module -- it's dangerous or useless 
except in the hands of experts.  Will backport to 2.2.2.

Skip Montanaro 4a38583456 reference the new NEWS.help file 2002-09-20 17:08:52 +00:00
Skip Montanaro e5d7f7f3af ReST-ification of the NEWS file. While the total number of changes are 
fairly large, most are caused by reformatting section and subsection
headings.  The changes fall into the following categories:

    * reformatted section and subsection headers.

    * escaped isolated asterisks which would be interpreted as starting bold
      or italic text (e.g. "void (*)(PyObject \*)").

    * quoted stuff that looks like internal references but isn't
      (e.g. ``PyCmp_``).

    * changed visually balanced quotes to just use apostrophes
      (e.g. "'string'" instead of "`string'").

    * introduced and indenting multiline chunks of code.

    * created one table (search for "New codecs").

Guido van Rossum 923e4ef049 The SGI demos are gone. 2002-09-17 20:58:59 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 4cb2204851 migrate news about 2.1 and earlier releases from NEWS to HISTORY in 
preparation for ReST-ification of NEWS.  (Also tests checkin ability
from my new Powerbook.  woohoo!)

Martin v. Löwis 94717ed1d4 Patch #606592: Subsecond timestamps in stat_result. 2002-09-09 14:24:16 +00:00
Walter Dörwald 5ccaf8f129 Apply diff3.txt (plus additional documentation) 
from SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/554192

This adds two new functions to mimetypes:
guess_all_extensions() which returns a list of all known
extensions for a mime type, and add_type() which adds one
mapping between a mime type and an extension.

Skip Montanaro 8e790e7007 expose PYTHON_API_VERSION macro as sys.api_version. Closes patch # 601456. 2002-09-03 13:25:17 +00:00
Walter Dörwald 3aeb632c31 PEP 293 implemention (from SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/432401) 2002-09-02 13:14:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 45ec02aed1 SF patch 576101, by Oren Tirosh: alternative implementation of 
interning.  I modified Oren's patch significantly, but the basic idea
and most of the implementation is unchanged.  Interned strings created
with PyString_InternInPlace() are now mortal, and you must keep a
reference to the resulting string around; use the new function
PyString_InternImmortal() to create immortal interned strings.
 2002-08-19 21:43:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d8ab35c933 News about sets. (There's no documentation; if someone wants to 
convert the doc strings to LaTeX, be my guest.)

Tim Peters 012c0a393a Newly-relaxed limits on random.randrange(). Also added some info about 
Karatsuba's better cache behavior with extremely large multiplicands.

Michael W. Hudson dd32a91cc0 This is my patch 
[ 587993 ] SET_LINENO killer

Remove SET_LINENO.  Tracing is now supported by inspecting co_lnotab.

Many sundry changes to document and adapt to this change.

Guido van Rossum 9be8946a3e Add news about FutureWarning and PEP 237 stage B0. 
Tim predicts that we might as well call this CassandraWarning.
 2002-08-14 16:11:30 +00:00
Tim Peters 6000464d08 Added new function k_lopsided_mul(), which is much more efficient than 
k_mul() when inputs have vastly different sizes, and a little more
efficient when they're close to a factor of 2 out of whack.

I consider this done now, although I'll set up some more correctness
tests to run overnight.
 2002-08-12 22:01:34 +00:00
Tim Peters d64c1def7c k_mul() and long_mul(): I'm confident that the Karatsuba algorithm is 
correct now, so added some final comments, did some cleanup, and enabled
it for all long-int multiplies.  The KARAT envar no longer matters,
although I left some #if 0'ed code in there for my own use (temporary).
k_mul() is still much slower than x_mul() if the inputs have very
differenent sizes, and that still needs to be addressed.

Guido van Rossum e343878eec New news about __class__ assignment restrictions and speed-up of 
new-style object creation/deallocation.

Moved all news about type/class unification and new-stype classes to a
separate section at the top.

Neal Norwitz 6c70fca8b1 Revert what looks like a typo from the last checkin 2002-08-12 03:33:32 +00:00
Tim Peters 5af4e6c739 Cautious introduction of a patch that started from 
SF 560379:  Karatsuba multiplication.
Lots of things were changed from that.  This needs a lot more testing,
for correctness and speed, the latter especially when bit lengths are
unbalanced.  For now, the Karatsuba code gets invoked if and only if
envar KARAT exists.
 2002-08-12 02:31:19 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg cc8764ca9d Add C API PyUnicode_FromOrdinal() which exposes unichr() at C level. 
u'%c' will now raise a ValueError in case the argument is an
integer outside the valid range of Unicode code point ordinals.

Closes SF bug #593581.

Thomas Heller 085358a3e2 New functions for extension writers on Windows: 
PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErr(), PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErrWithFilename().

Similar to PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilename() and
PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(), but they allow to specify
the exception type to raise. Available on Windows.

See SF patch #576458.
