Raymond Hettinger 83e4a146db SF bug #1067018: Obsolete info in Tutorial 9.1 
Removed a section that is out of date after type/class unification.
While there was still some validity, the paragraph offered more
confusion that insight.

Raymond Hettinger db29e0fe8c SF patch #1035498: -m option to run a module as a script 
(Contributed by Nick Coghlan.)
 2004-10-07 06:46:25 +00:00
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.

Johannes Gijsbers 24f141ab46 Raymond observed that sometimes it's better not to link modules, so I reverted 
part of my previous last changes.
 2004-09-25 00:55:38 +00:00
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
Raymond Hettinger 879ddf30d0 Tweak the wording. Improve examples. Make more brief. 2004-09-14 06:32:20 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 29c6a79b7d Cover string.Template in the tutorial's library tour. 2004-09-14 05:21:42 +00:00
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!

Raymond Hettinger d3b0babf66 SF bug #1013760: Error in Chapter 4 of Tutorial 
Fit a nit.

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.
