Bug report
by Christian Yeganeh 04 May '16

04 May '16

I have found a bug. Its small and not harmful. But its still there. If you take the string of a tuple, it will not always return the correct string. If you have a tuple with only one element and cast it using str() it will put the comma at the end of the string before the ) as if there was a second element. sample code: >>> class testclass: ... def __repr__(s): return 'a' ... >>> (1,2)[1:] (2,) >>> tuple([1]) (1,) >>> tuple(['a']) ('a',) >>> tuple(tuple([1])) (1,) >>> tuple([testclass(),1,'a'])[1:2] (1,) >>> (1,2,testclass())[2:] (a,) >>> #no matter what way you get it as lon as its a single element it includes the , after the element ... >>> #however with multiple elements ... >>> tuple([1,2]) (1, 2) >>> (1,2) (1, 2) >>> (1,2,3)[1:] (2, 3) Christian Yeganeh

[issue26914] Fix formatting of lists in PEP 420
by Ned Batchelder 03 May '16

03 May '16

New submission from Ned Batchelder: The numbered and bulletted lists are indented from the body text, which looks good in the .rst, but causes the lists themselves to be blockquotes. This leads to confusing formatting on python.org: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0420/ BTW: this formatting error is rampant among the PEPs... :( ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: pep-0420.patch keywords: patch messages: 264677 nosy: docs@python, nedbat priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Fix formatting of lists in PEP 420 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file42686/pep-0420.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26914> _______________________________________

[issue26874] Docstring error in divmod function
by mbarao 01 May '16

01 May '16

New submission from mbarao: The documentation of the divmod function says that a tuple ((x-x%y)/y, x%y) is returned, but this is not correct anymore for python3. I think it should be ((x-x%y)//y, x%y) where an integer division is used. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 264434 nosy: docs@python, mbarao priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Docstring error in divmod function type: enhancement versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26874> _______________________________________
