Andrew M. Kuchling 65b7282ef7 Add reminder about PEP293 2002-09-03 00:53:21 +00:00
Michael W. Hudson 53d58bb369 Further SET_LINENO reomval fixes. See comments in patch #587933.
Use a slightly different strategy to determine when not to call the line
trace function.  This removes the need for the RETURN_NONE opcode, so
that's gone again.  Update docs and comments to match.

Thanks to Neal and Armin!

Also add a test suite.  This should have come with the original patch...

Fred Drake 13090e1025 Give the section on PEP 263 a more meaningful title, so readers will
be able to locate this information without knowing the PEP number.

Andrew M. Kuchling bc4651083e Cover the sets module.
(There's a link to PEP218; has PEP218 been updated to match the actual
module implementation?)

[ 400998 ] experimental support for extended slicing on lists

somewhat spruced up and better tested than it was when I wrote it.

Includes docs & tests.  The whatsnew section needs expanding, and arrays
should support extended slices -- later.
