[issue16161] broken link to Visual Studio 2008 in devguide
by Christian Heimes Oct. 8, 2012

Oct. 8, 2012

Christian Heimes added the comment: Meh, MS likes to invalidate or alter the meaning of an URL. Have you verified that vcsetup.exe is the right thing? I *guess* that vcsetup stands for "Visual C++ setup" and vcssetup for "Visual C Sharp Setup" but I'm not sure about it. ---------- assignee: -> docs@python nosy: +christian.heimes, docs@python versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16161> _______________________________________

[issue16036] simplify int() signature docs
by Chris Jerdonek Oct. 7, 2012

Oct. 7, 2012

New submission from Chris Jerdonek: This issue is to simplify the documentation of the built-in function int()'s signature: int([number | string[, base]]) and to make any needed changes to the text of the docs as a consequence. Discussion around this issue began in the comments to issue 14783 about int() and str()'s docstrings. [I copied the nosy list from that issue.] ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation keywords: easy messages: 171238 nosy: chris.jerdonek, cvrebert, docs@python, eric.araujo, ezio.melotti, georg.brandl, rhettinger, storchaka, terry.reedy, tshepang priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: simplify int() signature docs type: enhancement versions: Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16036> _______________________________________
