Guido van Rossum 1968ad32cd - Patch 1433928:
- The copy module now "copies" function objects (as atomic objects).
  - dict.__getitem__ now looks for a __missing__ hook before raising
    KeyError.
  - Added a new type, defaultdict, to the collections module.
    This uses the new __missing__ hook behavior added to dict (see above).

Fred Drake 04d92c37f2 Remove list of pickle protocol names used by the copy module; there
are enough subtleties to pickling that we don't want misunderstanding
to spread because we don't provide all the information twice.  The
reference to the pickle module for information will have to suffice;
at least only one portion of the docs will be out of date.  ;-(

Fred Drake 519744409b Fix really bad typo, noted by Neil Schemenauer <nas@arctrix.com>. 2000-10-06 20:16:50 +00:00
Fred Drake d88d0a1d5b It turns out that Guido does not like or encourage the use of the term
"disciplines" for the __*__() methods, so they should be referred to as
"methods" or "special methods", as appropriate in context.

Fred Drake f5213c2a3d Usage nit: a bunch of "nor"s should have been a single "or".
Make reference to the copy_reg module a hyperlink.

Fred Drake 1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.

Fred Drake af8a015c93 Consistency: "{\bf ...}" ==> "\strong{...}"
"{\em ...}" ==> "\emph{...}"

	      Not at all sure what to do with "{\rm ...}".
	      Leaving it for now.
