Johannes Gijsbers	97613ad02d	Patch #1051321 (fixes bugs 1010196, 1013525), by Mike Brown: ... * Document hasFeature(), createDocument(), CreateDocumentType(), hasAttribute(), hasAttributeNS(). * In the documentation for createDocument(), it is now stated that the Python DOM API allows implementations to forego creation of the document element child node, if no namespace and local name arguments are given. (This possibility is left open and unaddressed in the W3C spec). * Addition by me: use 'name' rather than 'attname', for consistency with the DOM specification and the Python DOM API implementation.	2005-01-09 00:36:53 +00:00
Johannes Gijsbers	158df10341	Bug #1098497: various small typo's, grammar and markup nits.	2005-01-09 00:12:48 +00:00
Johannes Gijsbers	836f5433f7	Patch #943206: ... `glob.glob()` currently calls itself recursively to build a list of matches of the dirname part of the pattern and then filters by the basename part. This is effectively BFS. ``glob.glob('*/*/*/*/*/foo')`` will build a huge list of all directories 5 levels deep even if only a handful of them contain a ``foo`` entry. A generator-based recusion would never have to store these list at once by implementing DFS. This patch converts the `glob` function to an `iglob` recursive generator . `glob()` now just returns ``list(iglob(pattern))``. I also cleaned up the code a bit (reduced duplicate `has_magic()` checks and created a second `glob0` helper func so that the main loop need not be duplicated). Thanks to Cherniavsky Beni for the patch!	2005-01-08 13:13:19 +00:00
Johannes Gijsbers	e4172eadf3	Patch #1094015: ... * Use os.makedirs() instead os.mkdir(). (bug #975763) * Use copystat() to copy directory bits (bug #1048878)	2005-01-08 12:31:29 +00:00

Armin Rigo	80adba6873	Mistakes in the "sequence types" page: ... * explanation for example with lists of lists made confusing use of the word "contains" to mean "is built out of". * wrong formula for slices with step. Is it ok to use LaTeX formulas (which become images in the html document)? This version needs one because it's based on a fraction. Just writing "\code{(j-i)/k}" here would be ambiguous because it looks like a rounding-down-to-the-previous-integer division, which is not what we need here. Of course we could write "\code{float(j-i)/k}" but it just looks confusing.	2004-11-04 11:29:09 +00:00
