Raymond Hettinger 65df07bf23 Minor improvements, fixups and wording changes everywhere. 2004-07-11 12:40:19 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger bf4406971c Improve Context construction and representation:
* Rename "trap_enablers" to just "traps".
* Simplify names of "settraps" and "setflags" to just "traps" and "flags".
* Show "capitals" in the context representation
* Simplify the Context constructor to match its repr form so that only
  the set flags and traps need to be listed.
* Representation can now be run through eval().

Improve the error message when the Decimal constructor is given a float.

The test suite no longer needs a duplicate reset_flags method.

Raymond Hettinger 5aa478badf Module and tests:
* Map conditions to related signals.
* Make contexts unhashable.
* Eliminate used "default" attribute in exception definitions.
* Eliminate the _filterfunc in favor of a straight list.

Docs:
* Eliminate documented references to conditions that are not signals.
* Eliminate parenthetical notes such as "1/0 --> Inf" which are no
  longer true with the new defaults.
