[issue12622] failfast argument to TextTestRunner not documented
by Karthikeyan Singaravelan March 17, 2019

March 17, 2019

Karthikeyan Singaravelan <tir.karthi(a)gmail.com> added the comment: failfast was added to the TextTestRunner signature in docs with issue17871 for 3.x and issue26097 for 2.7 . I guess the original issue was about signature missing in the docs and if so would propose closing this issue since it's fixed now. ---------- nosy: +xtreak _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue12622> _______________________________________

[issue36138] Improve documentation about converting datetime.timedelta to scalars
by Paul Ganssle March 16, 2019

March 16, 2019

New submission from Paul Ganssle <p.ganssle(a)gmail.com>: In a recent python-dev thread, there was some confusion about how to get something like `timedelta.total_microseconds()`. There is already an existing, supported idiom for this, which is that `timedelta` implements division: td = timedelta(hours=1) num_microseconds = td / timedelta(microseconds=1) In this e-mail ( https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2019-February/156351.html ), Nick Coghlan proposed that we update the documentation and there were no objections, quoting: * In the "Supported Operations" section of https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#timedelta-objects, change "Division (3) of t2 by t3." to "Division (3) of overall duration t2 by interval unit t3." * In the total_seconds() documentation, add a sentence "For interval units other than seconds, use the division form directly (e.g. `td / timedelta(microseconds=1)`)" I am starting this issue to track that change. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Library (Lib) messages: 336765 nosy: belopolsky, docs@python, ncoghlan, p-ganssle priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Improve documentation about converting datetime.timedelta to scalars versions: Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36138> _______________________________________

[issue13231] sys.settrace - document 'some other code blocks' for 'call' event type
by anatoly techtonik March 16, 2019

March 16, 2019

New submission from anatoly techtonik <techtonik(a)gmail.com>: http://docs.python.org/library/sys.html#sys.settrace While writing settrace function you need to know what kind of data is expected and how to get more information about it. Current documentation for sys.settrace doesn't give too much answers. To improve that situation at least with 'call' event: 1. Link 'frame' to the middle of table on inspect module page [1] 2. List all possible 'code blocks' for 'call' event (I know there is module in addition to function) 3. Provide example how to extract popular data for corresponding 'code block' (name for functions, name for modules, name for classes/methods, relative file path, line no, how to detect labmbda function) in a safe manner (inspect page contains some FUD about memory usage) 1. http://docs.python.org/library/inspect#types-and-members ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 146009 nosy: docs@python, techtonik priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: sys.settrace - document 'some other code blocks' for 'call' event type _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13231> _______________________________________
