[issue10224] Build 3.x documentation using python3.x
by Zachary Ware March 9, 2013

March 9, 2013

Zachary Ware added the comment: > Doc/make.bat assumes that this issue has already been resolved: > if "%PYTHON%" EQU "" set PYTHON=..\pcbuild\python > Even with '_d' appended, as it should be, that does not work for 3.x. > I think that line should be @rem'ed out until it does work. > Does anyone mind if I do so? I have offered an alternative fix for that issue as a part of issue17386. ---------- nosy: +zach.ware _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10224> _______________________________________

by Serhiy Storchaka March 9, 2013

March 9, 2013

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka: sched.scheduler() prefers to use time.monotonic as a default value for timefunc parameter, and time.time used only as a fallback.

[issue17332] typo in json docs - "convered" should be "converted"
by Ernie Hershey March 9, 2013

March 9, 2013

New submission from Ernie Hershey: Hi, On these pages: http://docs.python.org/3.4/library/json.html http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/json.html http://docs.python.org/3.2/library/json.html http://docs.python.org/2/library/json.html http://docs.python.org/2.6/library/json.html This line says "convered" but should be "converted." Note Keys in key/value pairs of JSON are always of the type str. When a dictionary is converted into JSON, all the keys of the dictionary are coerced to strings. As a result of this, if a dictionary is convered into JSON and then back into a dictionary, the dictionary may not equal the original one. That is, loads(dumps(x)) != x if x has non-string keys. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 183293 nosy: docs@python, ernest priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: typo in json docs - "convered" should be "converted" type: enhancement versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17332> _______________________________________
