[issue16395] Documentation claims that PySequence_Fast returns a tuple, when it actually returns a list.
by Josh Rosenberg April 8, 2014

April 8, 2014

Josh Rosenberg added the comment: As far as performance goes, presumably the length hinting API reduces the number of cases in which we're working with completely unsized iterables, right? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16395> _______________________________________

[issue21174] A typo in the docs for "exception GeneratorExit"
by Boštjan Mejak April 7, 2014

April 7, 2014

New submission from Boštjan Mejak: The docs for the exception GeneratorExit starts like this: Raise when a generator‘s close() method is called. The sentece should start with the first word "Raise" to say "Raised". You can find this particular doc sentence on this link: https://docs.python.org/2/library/exceptions.html#exceptions.GeneratorExit This is a small fix. Just add the letter "d". ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 215717 nosy: Zvezdoslovec, docs@… [View More]

by tomo cocoa April 6, 2014

April 6, 2014

Hello, I am a Japanese translator for Python documents. In the first paragraph of the subsubsection "27.6.1.1. Main options", a "--counts" option is explained, but trace module does not have that option. "--count" option may be misspelt with "--counts". https://docs.python.org/3.3/library/trace.html#main-options Thank you, cocoatomo -- class Cocoatomo: name = 'cocoatomo' email_address = 'cocoatomo77(a)gmail.com' twitter_id = '@cocoatomo'

Problem With Python Arithmetic
by John Hulbert April 6, 2014

April 6, 2014

Hello. I don't know if this is a bug in Python, or my own misuse of the language. I have the following code: p=3470494144279007 p=(p*3+1)/2 print(p) p=3470494144279007.0 p=(p*3+1)/2 print(p) These should give the same answer, but I get the following 2 answers, with the first one correct, and the second one wrong. (They differ in the last integer digit): 5205741216418511.0 5205741216418510.0 Also, can you tell me (a Python beginner), how I can force Python to use long integer … [View More]

(They differ in the last integer digit): 5205741216418511.0 5205741216418510.0 I have now discovered that I should have been using integer division, (//), instead of ordinary division, (/). … [View More]
