Fred Drake 1dba66cb72 Marc-Andre Lemburg <mal@lemburg.com> noted that the encode() string method 
was added in 2.0.
 2000-10-25 21:03:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 0b4e25d0c0 Use \obindex{...} instead of \indexii{...}{type} in many places; this is 
more consistent with other index entries in the documentation.
 2000-10-04 04:21:19 +00:00
Fred Drake fffe5dbc47 Fixed a number of small problems reported by Detlef Lannert

Fred Drake 66d32b1e12 Add some index entries to make it easier to find information on 
%-formatting of strings.
 2000-09-14 17:57:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 1349437e4c When referring to namespaces, always say "namespaces" instead of 
"name spaces".

Inconsistency noted by Keith Briggs <keith.briggs@bt.com>.
 2000-09-12 16:23:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 66571cc20c Improve a couple of references to the language reference, making them 
hyperlinks to relevant sections.

Clarify the conditions under which the "softspace" attribute of file-like
objects can "just work" (with relation to overriding of attribute access
in user-defined classes).
 2000-09-09 03:30:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 512bb72fb0 As pointed out by Denis S. Otkidach <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>, xrange() 
returns an xrange object, not a range object, despite the name of the
source file they're implemented in.

In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is
described as obsolescent.
 2000-08-18 03:12:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 107b9679c4 Document the range type, as suggested by Denis S. Otkidach

Small markup nits elsewhere.
 2000-08-12 03:36:23 +00:00

at this point.
 2000-07-31 23:42:23 +00:00
Peter Schneider-Kamp 5a65c2d436 added count, extend, index, pop and remove to arraymodule 2000-07-31 20:52:21 +00:00

Fred Drake 68921dfa31 In note mentioning [].remove()'s exception, tell what exception is 
raised.  Prompted by Barry's whining.  ;-0

Fred Drake 6d20caa2ce Reflow paragraph to work around LaTeX2HTML dropping a space. 1999-04-21 18:17:11 +00:00
Fred Drake c3fcd6fa0e Added index entry for "file objects"; this is appearantly referenced 
somewhere in the Reference Manual, and someone tried to locate it via
the index.  Report on the omission by Stefan Franke
<sfranke@cdc-group.com>.
 1999-04-21 13:58:17 +00:00
Fred Drake f4cbada3f9 Correct documentation for <file>.read(); Python makes a serious 
best-effort to return 'size' bytes.  Point out that this may mean
multiple fread() calls.  Reported by Anders Hammarquist
<iko@iko.pp.se> via the Debian crew.
 1999-04-14 14:31:53 +00:00

names.

Markup nits.

Fred Drake e839199014 Fix indexing of func_code attribute; this is on a function, not a code 
object.

Add "()" to method names indexed using \ttindex{}.
 1998-11-25 17:09:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 130072d663 Don't describe something as "below"; that won't make sense for the 
HTML version.  Give a reference to the actual section to allow a
hyperlink to be built.
 1998-10-28 20:08:35 +00:00
Barry Warsaw afd974c2ab Document the new list.extend() method. Interesting enough, the 
canonical definition of extend() is very similar to append() except
that the former doesn't list-ify the argument!
 1998-10-09 16:39:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a2f0668e4 Markup nits.

it's mentioned.
 1998-07-24 15:02:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 64e3b43583 Move files around to get the names to match the module names except for 
case.  Two modules (SocketServer, BaseHTTPServer) still don't match; those
names are just too long!
