Raymond Hettinger 258dfebfb4 * Note how dummy entry re-use benefits use cases with interspersed deletes
and adds.

* Note that dictionary iteration is negatively impacted by additional
  sparseness.

Brett Cannon f1cfb622e8 'forget' now also deletes any proper .pyo files.
Added some docstrings.
2003-05-04 21:15:27 +00:00
Tim Peters 015dd82136 Somewhere along the way, the softspace attr of file objects became read-
only.  Repaired, and added new tests to test_file.py.

Greg Ward d72312857e Scattered wording and typographical improvements (up to but not
including the "Callback Options" section).
2003-05-03 21:22:58 +00:00
Greg Ward 649625bc05 Rename "The Tao of Option Parsing" section to "Philosophy".

2003-05-03 20:41:37 +00:00
Greg Ward 1f53517a8c Use True/False instead of 1/0 when talking about store_true/store_false.
Particularly important since they now store True and False rather than 1
and 0!

Greg Ward c50b088cfd Add a big comment about cross-platform issues (especially OpenBSD).
This should be turned into a footnote by someone who actually
understands OSS and its relationship to Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD,
etc.

Greg Ward bf8f1b55a8 Use TeX quotes -- ``foo'' -- as appropriate.
Remove whitespace around em-dashes.
2003-05-03 19:41:45 +00:00
Greg Ward b4e3319302 Fix various markup errors: use \longprogramopt{} more, and use it
correctly.  (Closes SF #731689.)  Use \emph{} in a few places.

Raymond Hettinger 930427b892 Add a reference to dictnotes.txt. It does no good if you don't know it's
there or where to find it.

Raymond Hettinger 7c2bb5bc57 * Added a substantial number of edge case and argument tests for
the itertoolsmodule.
* Taught itertools.repeat(obj, n) to treat negative repeat counts as
  zero.  This behavior matches that for sequences and prevents
  infinite loops.
2003-05-03 05:59:48 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 27922eef35 Apply the simplified test_support boilerplate. 2003-05-03 03:38:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 8b34e7cc40 - add title attributes to the navigation icons on the navigation bars;
this causes some browsers to offer descriptive tooltips when the
  mouse hovers over the linked icon
- clean up the code in this area

Just van Rossum d77bee1476 fixed typo 2003-05-03 00:38:26 +00:00
Just van Rossum 4e2d23226f Install automatic GIL switcher upon IDE startup.
(Jack: maybe this could/should be done in Framework.py instead, that way
apps don't have to think about it. PackMan springs to mind...)
2003-05-03 00:31:35 +00:00
Just van Rossum 96f7d875b7 build the new autoGIL module on OSX 2003-05-03 00:27:23 +00:00
Just van Rossum 6767eed22a Short and sweet module doing something very useful: for event loop
based threads, release the GIL when the event loop goes to sleep,
and acquire it again when the event loop wakes up again. OSX-only.
2003-05-03 00:18:55 +00:00
Just van Rossum d797e7b507 Fixed age-old beginner's error: don't start the main loop as a side
effect of an import. (This is one step towards threading support in
the IDE.)

Raymond Hettinger 320a1b0454 Simplify ref count test. 2003-05-02 22:44:59 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 8fd3f871f3 Add StopIteration tests.
Simplify test_main().

Fred Drake 05404c3d7c add link types for the remaining links in the navigation panels 2003-05-02 20:30:18 +00:00
Jack Jansen 4f45011af2 CWI moved websites around without me knowing it, and together with
a bug in urllib2 this caused pimp to stop working. Fixed the URL to
make it work again.
2003-05-02 20:27:40 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 834f463948 Note itertools.islice() bugfix. 2003-05-02 20:24:56 +00:00
Fred Drake bf8ec3e035 - add link relationships to some of the links in the navigation panels
- implement custom_REL_hook() so LaTeX2HTML uses currently recommended
  link types; those work fine with tools like the Mozilla Site
  Navigation Bar

Raymond Hettinger 5466296f02 Research notes and explorations for optimizing Python dictionaries. 2003-05-02 20:11:29 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 341deb74e7 The previous made the stop argument optional.
It is better to be explicit and just allow stop to be None.
2003-05-02 19:44:20 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 14ef54cd83 SF bug #730685: itertools.islice stop argument is not optional
* itertools.islice() stop argument did not perform as documented.
* beefed-up test suite

head.
2003-05-02 18:21:22 +00:00
Fred Drake f06b90534b Remove section number from the title for use in the
<meta name='description' ...> element in the document head.
2003-05-02 18:08:16 +00:00
Anthony Baxter 0e85f9d6fd Patch 731209: Restore socketmodule's behaviour with dotted quad addresses
to that of Python2.1. Such nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn addresses are just used directly,
not passed to the resolver for a pointless lookup.
2003-05-02 15:40:46 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 6dc4a8e3fb add note about building with bsddb185 and making it appear as bsddb. 2003-05-02 15:27:59 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 2e973c03f3 Added missing modules to __all__ check. 2003-05-02 09:36:07 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 91bbd9a7b9 Used sets.Set() to compare unordered sequences.
Improves clarity and brevity.

Jeremy Hylton fc61f9a36e Silence compiler warnings in VC 7. 2003-05-01 21:31:53 +00:00
Ken Manheimer 2448f1b655 Slightly more lenient pdbtrack prompt recognition, for people who use
eg "pdb>".
