[issue7229] Manual entry for time.daylight can be misleading
by Alexander Belopolsky July 19, 2010

July 19, 2010

Alexander Belopolsky <belopolsky(a)users.sourceforge.net> added the comment: Georg, Do you mind if I take this over? While I have issues with east/west of UTC terminology, it is the accepted terminology throughout the manual and Brian's rewording is an improvement. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7229> _______________________________________

Bug in http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/io.html#
by bob gailer July 18, 2010

July 18, 2010

Under 15.2.1 - io.open it says: "/file/ is either a string or bytes object giving the name (and the path if the file isn't in the current working directory)" Inaccurate in that you can provide the path even if the file is in the current working directory. Better: "/file/ is either a string or bytes object giving either the filename or path + filename . If just the filename is given the current working directory is the path." -- Bob Gailer 919-636-4239 Chapel Hill NC
