1998-07-23 19:47:41 +00:00

obsolete.
1998-06-27 18:25:44 +00:00
e5836d9811
Mark the 'whence' parameter of the file object's seek() method as optional;

1998-06-22 15:02:42 +00:00
a7874d1505
Revert the change of revision 1.30. While it's in general a laudable
...
goal to use isinstance(x, y) instead of comparing type(x) to y, it
doesn't make sense to change this in the example code for the type()
builtin...
1998-06-22 14:07:36 +00:00
1b0ff2c32f
eval() example: Removed final interpreter prompt; other examples don't have

# appear broken.
1998-06-17 22:37:26 +00:00
777dcc6b21
Change the description of input() -- it is exactly equivalent to
...
eval(raw_input(s)). The statement about breaking a long expression
over multiple lines is no longer true.

...
and allows the info to work through this section.
1998-05-11 19:51:11 +00:00
02379fab61
Use \ldots, not \dots. The info process doesn't know about \dots.
1998-05-08 15:39:40 +00:00

Fix vonmisesvariate() -- it now returns an angle between 0 and *two*

Jeff Kunce writes (and he is right):
...
Also, I just ran across a [possible] minor glitch
in the library documentation for site.py. It says:
"For example, suppose sys.prefix and
sys.exec_prefix are set to `/usr/local'. The
Python 1.5 library is then installed in
`/usr/local/lib/python1.5'. Suppose this has a
subdirectory `/usr/local/python1.5/site-packages'
with three subsubdirectories, `foo', `bar' and
`spam'..."
I think it should be:
"...Suppose this has a subdirectory
`/usr/local/lib/python1.5/site-packages' with..."

Guido, you should probably look at this. The pickle documentation is out of

__safe_for_unpickling__ attribute.
1998-01-21 04:58:10 +00:00

Add module reference for cPickle to index.
...
Consistency: Always use trailing "()" for function and method names in text.
Consistency: Always mark parameter names with \var{} in text.
Change questionable text about CORBA to definate text about XDR; "CORBA" isn't
enough to specify an external representation, and I'm not sure the comment is
right if we say "IIOP". I know its right about XDR if we only mention shared
object references and not recursive structures.
1998-01-09 22:36:51 +00:00

In description of the group() method, fix markup of "\(" and "\)" literals;

"\code{\\(}" produces "(" in the .dvi file and "<BR> (" in the latex2html

fixes both. Breaks the .texi file generation again. Oh well.

Lots of minor nits that allow this file to get processed without failures by

the info generation phases. Most of the errors had occurred in the makeinfo
step.
Commented out the warning at the top; this should still really be removed
before 1.5, but that's not my call. It generated problems for the info
conversion as well.

"\seetext{...}" instead of "\seetext ...".
1997-12-29 16:37:04 +00:00
45c9df6636
Changed some \verb\...\ markup to the more common \code{...}. \verb\...\ is

rarely needed and should be avoided where possible since it doesn't behave
well with some processing tools (like partparse.py).
1997-12-29 15:55:10 +00:00
7f96291ee2
Convert a couple of three-column tables with an empty third column to
