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
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
