Hello, A lot of the modules that we were using were build-in modules in Python. After doing some searching online, I am wondering under what license these kinds of modules are included as I could not find anything concrete (e.g., array, csv, math, webbrowser, etc.). I am guessing they are included under the same license as the Python version that we are using, could you clarify this for me? Thank you for your time. Kind regards, Dante

[issue40348] Programming FAQ about "What is delegation?": Fix typos

Oct. 4, 2020

New submission from Dominik V. <dominik.vilsmeier1123(a)gmail.com>: https://docs.python.org/3/faq/programming.html#what-is-delegation The code example uses `self._outfile` with a single leading underscore, however in the subsequent text it is referred to with a double leading underscore: * [...] calling the underlying `self.__outfile.write()` method. * All other methods are delegated to the underlying `self.__outfile` object. These should be fixed to use a single leading underscore as … [View More]

by Jacob RR Oct. 3, 2020

Oct. 3, 2020

New submission from Jacob RR <xboxgamermaple(a)gmail.com>: hi, so I *think* that ValueError shows an error grammatically incorrect?

by Paddy McCarthy Oct. 3, 2020

Oct. 3, 2020

New submission from Paddy McCarthy <paddy3118(a)gmail.com>: Hi, I was answering some question and used dict.setdefault as part of the solution and posted the help() on it as part of my answer. The help was this: In [15]: help(mapper.setdefault) Help on built-in function setdefault: setdefault(...) method of builtins.dict instance D.setdefault(k[,d]) -> D.get(k,d), also set D[k]=d if k not in D This seems the wrong way around. Is it not better expressed as D.setdefault(k[,… [View More]
