Fred Drake 758f5ea419 Replace last two uses of the "list" environment with "description"
environments.

Closes SF bug #692442: Konqueror can't render docs because of
malformed HTML.  While the generated HTML is still terrible, the cited
cases of <DL COMPACT> have been removed.  The general problem of XHTML
conformance has not been solved, but is endemic to LaTeX2HTML output.

backport this.
2004-11-04 21:27:48 +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.

popen2.popen2/3/4 functions can be a sequence. All texts are a variation on the
following:

On \UNIX, \var{cmd} may be a sequence, in which case arguments will be passed
directly to the program without shell intervention (as with
\function{os.spawnv()}). If \var{cmd} is a string it will be passed to the shell
(as with \function{os.system()}).

Barry Warsaw bb11386730 Big email 3.0 API changes, with updated unit tests and documentation.
Briefly (from the NEWS file):

- Updates for the email package:
  + All deprecated APIs that in email 2.x issued warnings have been removed:
    _encoder argument to the MIMEText constructor, Message.add_payload(),
    Utils.dump_address_pair(), Utils.decode(), Utils.encode()
  + New deprecations: Generator.__call__(), Message.get_type(),
    Message.get_main_type(), Message.get_subtype(), the 'strict' argument to
    the Parser constructor.  These will be removed in email 3.1.
  + Support for Python earlier than 2.3 has been removed (see PEP 291).
  + All defect classes have been renamed to end in 'Defect'.
  + Some FeedParser fixes; also a MultipartInvariantViolationDefect will be
    added to messages that claim to be multipart but really aren't.
  + Updates to documentation.

Tim Peters 01ba799244 A number of list examples used 66.6, but I doubt there's any box on which
repr(66.6) == "66.6", so doubt that the claimed output has ever been seen.
Changed it to 66.25 everywhere, and manually verified that the new claimed
output is correct.
2004-09-28 16:12:50 +00:00
Edward Loper 7d88a58e85 Reverted the addition of a NORMALIZE_NUMBERS option, per Tim Peter's
request.  Tim says that "correct 'fuzzy' comparison of floats cannot
be automated."  (The motivation behind adding the new option
was verifying interactive examples in Python's latex documentation;
several such examples use numbers that don't print consistently on
different platforms.)
2004-09-28 05:50:57 +00:00
Edward Loper aec3c9b54f Added a new NORMALIZE_NUMBERS option, which causes number literals in
the expected output to match corresponding number literals in the
actual output if their values are equal (to ten digits of precision).

Tim Peters 16be62f054 register_optionflag(): Moved from the Debugging section to the section
on option flags; added a versionadded decoration.

Tim Peters 8c0a2cf938 Explain the motivation for the unittest functions, and beef up the
example.  Squash repeated argument descriptions.  Minor rewordings.
2004-09-25 03:02:23 +00:00
Tim Peters b2b26aca13 Repaired mistakes in the descriptions of testmod()/testfile(), and
squashed massive duplication of common argument descriptions.
2004-09-25 01:51:49 +00:00
Tim Peters 2dc820599b Since the doctest warnings section was reduced to one bullet point,
get rid of the itemize structure.
2004-09-25 01:30:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 39c5de0376 In the "doctest warnings" section, removed obsolete info, and noted that
ELLIPSIS can be used to deal with examples that embed object addresses.
2004-09-25 01:22:29 +00:00
Johannes Gijsbers 24f141ab46 Raymond observed that sometimes it's better not to link modules, so I reverted

2004-09-25 00:55:38 +00:00
Tim Peters 06cc847cee Beef up the section on testfile(), giving a complete example in
reStructuredText format.  Remove words describing the return value of
testmod() and testfile() in the intro sections, since it's never
useful in such simple cases.

Johannes Gijsbers 27ebcae450 - Use itemize instead of plain-text '*' for marking up a list.
- Add more ulink's to modules (this should probably become a standard macro).
2004-09-24 23:25:25 +00:00
Vinay Sajip 739d49e39b Added log() function documentation 2004-09-24 11:46:44 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 596ba4d89e Granted Noam Raphael's request for minor improvements to the re module and
its documentation.

* Documented that the compiled re methods are supposed to be more full
  featured than their simpilified function counterparts.

* Documented the existing start and stop position arguments for the
  findall() and finditer() methods of compiled regular expression objects.

* Added an optional flags argument to the re.findall() and re.finditer()
  functions.  This aligns their API with that for re.search() and
  re.match().

Raymond Hettinger 23f1241dc6 SF #1027105: HardwareRandom should be renamed OSRandom
Renamed the new generator at Trevor's recommendation.

Johannes Gijsbers 6ab4b99f95 Patch #1025795: clarify language in Data Structures chapter of tutorial:
- Dictionary keys are in arbitrary order, but not random (which implies, well,
  intentional randomness).
- Move a footnote closer to what it's talking about so that it doesn't look
  like we're saying that "0 == 0.0" can't be relied on.
- Minor language tweaks in the vicinity.

Thanks Dima Dorfman!

Walter Dörwald 69652035bc SF patch #998993: The UTF-8 and the UTF-16 stateful decoders now support
decoding incomplete input (when the input stream is temporarily exhausted).
codecs.StreamReader now implements buffering, which enables proper
readline support for the UTF-16 decoders. codecs.StreamReader.read()
has a new argument chars which specifies the number of characters to
return. codecs.StreamReader.readline() and codecs.StreamReader.readlines()
have a new argument keepends. Trailing "\n"s will be stripped from the lines
if keepends is false. Added C APIs PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8Stateful and
PyUnicode_DecodeUTF16Stateful.

Skip Montanaro 0bbf137fbd Make the api of the _dispatch() method more concrete. I have no idea if
this is the right way to document such things (Fred, help me out here :-),
but I got misled by the existing documentation and assumed the parameter
list was a *args sort of thing.

Tim Peters 38330fe5ef The distinction between comparison flags and reporting flags isn't unique
to unittest, so make it official:  new module constants COMPARISON_FLAGS
and REPORTING_FLAGS, which are bitmasks or'ing together the relevant
individual option flags.

set_unittest_reportflags():  Reworked to use REPORTING_FLAGS, and
simplified overly complicated flag logic.

class FakeModule:  Removed this; neither documented nor used.

first failing example in each test.
2004-08-26 02:45:51 +00:00
Edward Loper 71f55af826 Renamed UNIFIED_DIFF->REPORT_UDIFF; CONTEXT_DIFF->REPORT_CDIFF; and
NDIFF_DIFF->REPORT_NDIFF.  This establishes the naming convention that
all reporting options should begin with "REPORT_" (since reporting
options are a different class from output comparison options; but they
are both set in optionflags).

Edward Loper 19b1958730 Only recognize the expected output as an exception if it *starts* with
a traceback message.  I.e., examples that raise exceptions may no
longer generate pre-exception output.  This restores the behavior of
doctest in python 2.3.  The ability to check pre-exception output is
being removed because it makes the documentation simpler; and because
there are very few use cases for it.

but atexit will become the one preferred way to do it.

Michael W. Hudson 0ccff074cd This is Mark Russell's patch:
[ 1009560 ] Fix @decorator evaluation order

From the description:

Changes in this patch:

- Change Grammar/Grammar to require
newlines between adjacent decorators.

- Fix order of evaluation of decorators
in the C (compile.c) and python
(Lib/compiler/pycodegen.py) compilers

- Add better order of evaluation check
to test_decorators.py (test_eval_order)

- Update the decorator documentation in
the reference manual (improve description
of evaluation order and update syntax
description)

and the comment:

Used Brett's evaluation order (see
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-August/047835.html)

(I'm checking this in for Anthony who was having problems getting SF to
talk to him)

Raymond Hettinger cb40ba1f5e SF bug #805304: super instances don't support item assignment
Document a nuance of super().  It is designed to work well with dotted

Raymond Hettinger d3fe2395b4 Minor improvements to the threading introduction:
* Expand the example to show a join.

* Mention the use case of I/O running concurrent with a computational
  thread.

* Be a tad more forceful about recommending Queue over other approaches
  to synchonization.

* Eliminate discussion around having a single interpreter.  This is a
  more advanced discussion that belongs in the library reference and
  in a section on extending and embedding.

Tim Peters 41a65ea7fe Doctest has new traceback gimmicks in 2.4. While trying to document
them (which they are now), I had to rewrite the code to understand
it.  This has got to be the most DWIM part of doctest -- but in context
is really necessary.

Tim Peters feec4533e2 Bug 1003935: xrange overflows
Added XXX comment about why the undocumented PyRange_New() API function
is too broken to be worth the considerable pain of repairing.

Changed range_new() to stop using PyRange_New().  This fixes a variety
of bogus errors.  Nothing in the core uses PyRange_New() now.

Documented that xrange() is intended to be simple and fast, and that
CPython restricts its arguments, and length of its result sequence, to
native C longs.

Added some tests that failed before the patch, and repaired a test that
relied on a bogus OverflowError getting raised.
