100 fold inaccuracy in time.clock() function in MacOS
by Bill Havens Oct. 2, 2010

Oct. 2, 2010

Dear docs I am teaching Python to undergrads here at SFU. I discovered that the time.clock() function yields the correct processor time on Windows machines in seconds but in MacOS 10.6.4 it produces the time in divided by 100. So a full minute real time elapsed yields 0.60 seconds. This is repeatable it seems. Surely the underlying C function is the same in Darwin as other unix implementations. Have you seen this issue before? Perhaps the docs for this function could be updated if this is … [View More]

by Hirokazu Yamamoto Oct. 1, 2010

Oct. 1, 2010

New submission from Hirokazu Yamamoto <ocean-city(a)m2.ccsnet.ne.jp>: Hello. While I was reading HTML help, I felt some links were not pointing to *before* what I wanted to read.

With attached patch, I am happy. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: py27_doc_index.patch keywords: patch messages: … [View More]

[issue5088] optparse: inconsistent default value for append actions
by Éric Araujo Oct. 1, 2010

Oct. 1, 2010

Éric Araujo <merwok(a)netwok.org> added the comment: Thanks for the patch. Some remarks: > :attr:`~Option.dest` variable, that already contains the default value I would have used “which” here, but I’m not a native speaker. > not replaced (contrary to what one can think) I’d have used a comma, not parens. > This behaviour is clear “makes sense” sounds better to me. > think that with a default value :attr:`~Option.dest` is a list I suggest a comma after “value”. > … [View More]
