Raymond Hettinger fbcf749479 Add table of idioms/patterns for using Counter objects.
Improve the appearance and flow of the References section -- it used
to have a box around it that wasn't distinct from the preceding code
boxes and it had a weird bolding pattern and hanging indents that
made the section disproportionately large.

Benjamin Peterson 5a0c864045 small logic correction 2009-01-13 01:49:10 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger aaa6e630f8 Simplify Counter() API. Replace items keyword argument
with a mapping.  Makes Counter() idempotent, makes update()
API the same as Counter.__init__(), makes a more readable
repr, makes the API more dict-like, and allows Steven
Bethard's update() example to work.

Gregory P. Smith 987735c4ec Update the documentation for binascii and zlib crc32/adler32 functions
to better describe the signed vs unsigned return value behavior on
different platforms and versions of python.  Mention the workaround to
make them all return the same thing by using & 0xffffffff.

Fixes issue4903.

Also needs to be merged into release26-maint, release30-maint, & py3k.

Raymond Hettinger ba666a59db Fix-up and clean-up docs for int.bit_length().
* Replace dramatic footnote with in-line comment about possible round-off errors in logarithms of large numbers.
* Add comments to the pure python code equivalent.
* replace floor() with int() in the mathematical equivalent so the type is correct (should be an int, not a float).
* add abs() to the mathematical equivalent so that it matches the previous line that it is supposed to be equivalent to.
* make one combined example with a negative input.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 322656596a Fixed issue #4233.
Changed semantic of _fileio.FileIO's close()  method on file objects with closefd=False.
The file descriptor is still kept open but the file object behaves like a closed file.
The FileIO  object also got a new readonly attribute closefd.

Brett Cannon 672237dc6c warnings.catch_warnings() now returns a list or None instead of the custom
WarningsRecorder object. This makes the API simpler to use as no special object
must be learned.

  A little 2to3 refactoring #3637

  This moves command line logic from refactor.py to a new file called
  main.py.  RefactoringTool now merely deals with the actual fixers and
  refactoring; options processing for example is abstracted out.

Ronald Oussoren 5640ce2f1e MacOS X: Enable 4-way universal builds
This patch adds a new configure argument on OSX:
        --with-universal-archs=[32-bit|64-bit|all]

When used with the --enable-universalsdk option this controls which
CPU architectures are includes in the framework. The default is 32-bit,
meaning i386 and ppc. The most useful alternative is 'all', which includes
all 4 CPU architectures supported by MacOS X (i386, ppc, x86_64 and ppc64).

This includes limited support for the Carbon bindings in 64-bit mode as well,
limited because (a) I haven't done extensive testing and (b) a large portion
of the Carbon API's aren't available in 64-bit mode anyway.

I've also duplicated a feature of Apple's build of python: setting the
environment variable 'ARCHFLAGS' controls the '-arch' flags used for building
extensions using distutils.
