[issue33014] Clarify doc string for str.isidentifier()
by David Beazley Oct. 8, 2018

Oct. 8, 2018

New submission from David Beazley <dave(a)dabeaz.com>: This is a minor nit, but the doc string for str.isidentifier() states: Use keyword.iskeyword() to test for reserved identifiers such as "def" and "class". At first glance, I thought that it meant you'd do this (doesn't work): 'def'.iskeyword() As opposed to this: import keyword keyword.iskeyword('def') Perhaps a clarification that "keyword" refers to the keyword module could be added. Or better yet, just make 'iskeyword()` a string method ;-). ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 313335 nosy: dabeaz, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Clarify doc string for str.isidentifier() versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33014> _______________________________________

Ma Lin <malincns(a)163.com> added the comment: It seems impossible to specify the encoding of .chm to ASCII [1], the available encodings of .chm are limited to a list [2]. So I wrote a Sphinx extension for .chm output, it escapes the characters which (codepoint > 0x7F) to 7-bit ASCII. Most escaped characters are: “”’–…— [1] https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/blob/master/sphinx/builders/htmlhelp.p… [2] https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/blob/master/sphinx/builders/htmlhelp.p… ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32174> _______________________________________

[issue22232] str.splitlines splitting on non-\r\n characters
by Neil Schemenauer Oct. 7, 2018

Oct. 7, 2018

Neil Schemenauer <nas-python(a)arctrix.com> added the comment: I too would prefer a new method name rather than overloading splitlines() with more keyword args (passed as hardcoded constants, usually). Again, I think we want: list(open(..).read().<splitmethod>()) == list(open(..)) readlines() returns a list but I think this method should return an iterator (seems more Python 3 like to me, call list if you want a list). In that case, iterlines() seems like the right name to me. I think it should take a 'newline' keyword that behaves the same as the open() version of the keyword. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue22232> _______________________________________

Oct. 7, 2018

Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpython(a)gmail.com> added the comment: I have reviewed PR 8346 yet one time. No documented working behavior was changed. Some documentation was updated to match the code, some code was updated to match the documentation, and other minor errors were fixed. I don't think this change breaks compatibility. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33729> _______________________________________
