Neal Norwitz ee6511b309 Fix the version number in which changes were made 2004-08-13 02:34:06 +00:00
Fred Drake f901abdd62 allow ctime(), gmtime(), and localtime() to take None as equivalent to an omitted arg 
(closes SF bug #658254, patch #663482)
 2004-08-03 17:58:55 +00:00
Skip Montanaro fb85739494 Point out that %p has no effect on the output hour in strptime unless %I is 
used to parse the hour.

Brett Cannon d1080a3418 Have strftime() check its time tuple argument to make sure the tuple's values 
are within proper boundaries as specified in the docs.

This can break possible code (datetime module needed changing, for instance)
that uses 0 for values that need to be greater 1 or greater (month, day, and
day of year).

Fixes bug #897625.

Fred Drake 188b2d6cfa - add link to the datetime module 2003-12-31 04:52:36 +00:00

Brett Cannon 20def8bb19 Make temporary change of using _strptime for time.strptime permanent.

Jeremy Hylton 6cb52ddc3c Refer reader to platform library docs for specific semantics.

 2003-05-05 16:46:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 57d575240c Update to better reflect the usage of struct_time instances throughout; 
continuing to call these "time tuples" is misleading at best.
Closes SF bug #671731; will backport to 2.2.x.

Guido van Rossum 2714706188 Phrase repair. 2002-12-31 04:41:38 +00:00

Will backport.

Fred Drake bad460790e Document struct_time and the field names. 2002-11-13 19:05:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 4e303aad05 Add notes to the asctime() and ctime() descriptions to make it 
explicit that locale information is not used.  There wasn't anything
that implied it was, but this has confused users.
 2002-10-30 18:17:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 18eb8b85b3 Doc patch from SF 474274 (pure Python strptime by Brett Cannon). 2002-07-19 17:09:36 +00:00
Fred Drake c37b65ee10 Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no 
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group.  These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.
 2001-11-28 07:26:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 589abb7212 Add additional information on exceptions from time.mktime() and related to 
improper time tuples passed to various functions.  Based on comments from
Andreas Jung.
 2001-10-29 18:01:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 0aa811c527 Use the \note and \warning macros where appropriate. 2001-10-20 04:24:09 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 0f10f84028 indicate that mktime is platform-dependent. See SF bug 434143. 2001-08-22 12:44:27 +00:00
Tim Peters dbec7d2c16 Improve Windows time.clock() blurb; was missing return type and unit. 2001-08-19 01:38:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 58212724f2 Add a comment on time.time() returning non-decreasing values except when 
the clock is set back.

This closes SF bug #447945.
 2001-08-05 15:43:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 687a17deaa Revise the description of time.clock() so that it correctly describes the 
Windows version of the function as well as the Unix flavor.

This fixes SF bug #441357.
 2001-07-16 15:40:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 8ee679f0ce Minor changes to match the style guide. 2001-07-14 02:50:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 907e76b620 Fix up a few style nits -- avoid "e.g." and "i.e." -- these make 
translation more difficult, as well as reading the English more
difficult for non-native speakers.
 2001-07-06 20:30:11 +00:00
Fred Drake f29ca18df3 SourceForge bug #437041: 
Use a portable format in the example that creates a timestamp suitable for
use in email, also updating it and the footnote from RFC 822 to RFC 2822.
 2001-06-29 15:39:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 1aec3a16f3 Add versioning notes: many of the signatures changed to allow the time 
used to be omitted (meaning use the current time) as of Python 2.1.
Users who need cross-version portability need to know things like this.
 2001-04-19 04:55:23 +00:00
Fred Drake cf2636696d Fix markup typo in a {verbatim} environment (there should not be any!); 
caught by Eric Raymond.
 2001-02-03 14:35:38 +00:00
Eric S. Raymond 9ca35ec97a Instructive example for strftime(); how to generate RFC822 dates. 2001-01-28 00:56:54 +00:00
Thomas Wouters fe385251f4 Make the 'time' argument to the timemodule functions strftime, asctime, 
ctime, gmtime and localtime optional, defaulting to 'the current time' in
all cases. Adjust docs, add news item. Also convert all argument-handling to
METH_VARARGS. Closes SF patch #103265.
 2001-01-19 23:16:56 +00:00
Fred Drake c32741d1ab Added warnings about platform vagaries to the strptime() documentation. 
This closes SourceForge bug #115146.
 2000-09-23 04:36:14 +00:00
Thomas Wouters f8316638af Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope 
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.
 2000-07-16 19:01:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 29fa30ea6b Correct a markup nit that caused a space to be dropped from the HTML 
version (actually a LaTeX2HTML bug), and clarified a sentence in the
mktime() description based entirely on comments from Grant Griffin
<grant.griffin@honeywell.com>.
 2000-07-06 18:09:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 57a2f7f8ef Change description of altzone to not refer to the "0th meridian". 2000-06-30 04:24:52 +00:00
Fred Drake d1a56f4235 Noted by Guido: 
Fixed up descriptions of altzone and timezone not to refer to the
0th meridian, which doesn't exist.  Reference is now to UTC.
 2000-04-05 15:06:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 38e5d27cae Merged changes from the 1.5.2p2 release. 
(Very rough.)
 2000-04-03 20:13:55 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b3fc9d148d Added disclaimer to the sleep() function. 1999-08-19 14:42:54 +00:00
Fred Drake abc8cc63ce Move some \index entries around so we can avoid using empty comments; 
empty comments trigger a bug in LaTeX2HTML.

Problem reported by Gerry Wiener <gerry@ucar.edu>.
 1999-05-26 16:15:17 +00:00
Fred Drake d8a41e6391 Fix an amazing number of typos & malformed sentences reported by Detlef

Guido van Rossum dbf7956e52 Clarify Y2K behavior when a tuple with a 2-digit date is passed to 
mktime() and such.
 1998-08-25 14:44:49 +00:00

Fix up a few synopses.
 1998-08-10 19:42:37 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 929bd0e02e Added notes about epochs, the year 2038, and a small Y2K disclaimer 
(all with index entries!).  Also update the list of functions that
take or yield a time represented as a 9-tuple.
 1998-06-09 21:25:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5d23758be7 Added docs for strptime(). 1998-06-09 16:30:56 +00:00
