Barry Warsaw 463c5a868f Update get_param() description to reflect changes to the docstring. 2003-08-19 04:26:59 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 6a1801271a Improvements to set.py: 
* Relaxed the argument restrictions for non-operator methods.  They now
  allow any iterable instead of requiring a set.  This makes the module
  a little easier to use and paves the way for an efficient C
  implementation which can take better advantage of iterable arguments
  while screening out immutables.

* Deprecated Set.update() because it now duplicates Set.union_update()

* Adapted the tests and docs to include the above changes.

* Added more test coverage including testing identities and checking
  to make sure non-restartable generators work as arguments.

Will backport to Py2.3.1 so that the interface remains consistent
across versions.  The deprecation of update() will be changed to
a FutureWarning.
 2003-08-17 08:34:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 236ffba400 Adjust some horizontal indentation to be consistent with the style used 
throughout the documentation.
 2003-08-16 06:30:47 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 7ceb29e4a5 Incorporate documentation suggestions from feedback on comp.lang.python. 
* Positive wording for the description of why < and > and = can all
  be False.

* Move to a three column table format that puts long method names
  side-by-side with their operator equivalents

* Mention that KeyError can be raised by Set.pop() and Set.remove().

* Minor tweaks to the examples.

Will backport as soon as Fred rebuilds the docs so I can confirm
the tables formatted properly

Martin v. Löwis cebcc61d4d Patch #781126: Fix markup for add_fallback. Will backport to 2.3. 2003-08-05 05:54:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 5d9c636faf init_myformat(): None of the "mark" values can be empty strings, or 
LaTeX2HTML feels free to remove a surrounding element that
    contains no other content.  Since such an element is typically a
    named anchor used for hyperlinking, they should not be removed.
    Unfortunatley, making sure these marks are non-empty is the most
    direct way of avoiding this behavior.

Thanks to Dave Kuhlman for tracking this down; this was some excellent
detective work!

Fred Drake e8e241b732 Make the howto document class work properly with the pypaper.sty 
paper-size hook.
SF patch #772550.
 2003-07-17 04:15:35 +00:00
Skip Montanaro bfa6872260 Zap the C API subsection altogether for now. It's not actually usable from 
C yet anyway.
 2003-07-16 21:14:35 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling aa9b39f910 Mention list.index; more small textual changes 2003-07-16 20:37:26 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling c760c6c442 Add reminder list of things to document; mention sys.getcheckinterval() and socket.timeout exception 2003-07-16 20:12:33 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 2491cd98c4 expose the C API subsection which was hidden from LaTeX in a comment. In 
the info conversion the \comment LaTeX macro mapped to a Texinfo @ignore
macro.  Unfortunately, py2texi.el is not smart enough to avoid generating
links to the @ignore'd section, which causes makeinfo to croak.

Exposing this text is probably not the most correct thing to do, as this
documentation really belongs in the C API manual.  This does get the info
files generated, however, which is a more practical goal considering the
impending release of 2.3rc1.

Raymond Hettinger 4d6e8fe5d1 Clarify the lack of relationship between rich comparison operators. 
Prompted by a discussion on comp.lang.python.
 2003-07-16 19:40:23 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 71adf7e9d8 Doctest now examines all docstrings by default. Previously, it would 
skip over functions with private names (as indicated by the underscore
naming convention).  The old default created too much of a risk that
user tests were being skipped inadvertently.  Note, this change could
break code in the unlikely case that someone had intentionally put
failing tests in the docstrings of private functions.  The breakage
is easily fixable by specifying the old behavior when calling testmod()
or Tester().  The more likely case is that the silent failure was
unintended and that the user needed to be informed so the test could be
fixed.
 2003-07-16 19:25:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 853276e16d Lots of markup cleanups to avoid warnings from the GNU info generation; 
these make sense even without that processing chain.
 2003-07-16 17:58:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 788617f8f0 Remove \versionchanged; the text was too complex for the GNU info 
conversion to support.  Keep the content as normal content, with a
note that this applies starting in Python 2.3.
 2003-07-16 16:19:08 +00:00

Fred Drake 3605ae5966 In the description of enumerate(), the indexing operators should not 
be included in the \var.  This produced weird results in general, but
broke the GNU info conversion.

Fred Drake 629dd99802 Make the "install schema" tables follow the same table style we use 
elsewhere (lines between columns).
 2003-07-02 14:33:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 89de74ee94 The Macintosh Modules Reference now formats to GNU info without errors 
(which is not to say it's right), so re-enable it.

Documenting Python and Installing Python Modules still have problems
when converting to GNU info, so we'll continue to leave them out for
now.

Fred Drake 3b09558710 Fill out the set of macros and environments supported somewhat.
