[issue41866] Document error in chinese version of contextlib.
by siyuan0322 Oct. 2, 2020

Oct. 2, 2020

New submission from siyuan0322 <siyuan0322(a)gmail.com>: In the Chinese version of documentation (both simplified and tradinational) of contextlib, the URL of `__enter__` and `__exit__` of [`contextlib.AbstractContextManager`](https://docs.python.org/zh-cn/3/library/contextlib.html#contextlib.AbstractContextManager) is pointing to the `__aenter__` and `__aexit__` method, which is a small mistake. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 377532 nosy: docs@… [View More]

[issue39710] "will be returned as unicode" reminiscent from Python 2
by Julien Palard Oct. 2, 2020

Oct. 2, 2020

New submission from Julien Palard <julien+python(a)palard.fr>: In https://docs.python.org/3/library/calendar.html#calendar.LocaleTextCalendar I read "If this locale includes an encoding all strings containing month and weekday names will be returned as unicode." `unicode` here is a mention of the `unicode` type from Python 2 which does no longer exists, so the whole sentence can just be removed. It happen also in the next paragraph, and twice in Lib/calendar.py. In Python 2: >>… [View More]

[issue40391] io.FileIO.mode doesn't comply with the docs
by mike.parker Oct. 2, 2020

Oct. 2, 2020

New submission from mike.parker <mike.parker-3ob7b3hc(a)yopmail.com>: io.FileIO.mode doesn't reflect "The mode as given in the constructor." as per the documentation(https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.FileIO.mode). Was noted in issue4362, but seems to be still relevant. Example: >>> f = open("t.tmp", "w+b") >>> f.mode 'rb+' ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, IO messages: 367288 nosy: benjamin.peterson, docs@python, mike.parker, … [View More]

[issue29127] Incorrect reference names in asyncio.subprocess documentation
by Eric Ahn Oct. 2, 2020

Oct. 2, 2020

New submission from Eric Ahn: On this page of the documentation https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-subprocess.html it seems that some of the reference names are incorrect. Namely, asyncio.subprocess.PIPE is referred to as asyncio.asyncio.subprocess.PIPE (along with STDOUT and DEVNULL), plus asyncio.subprocess.Process is referred to as asyncio.asyncio.subprocess.Process. This is reflected in the permalinks as well as when one tries to reference these via intersphinx (which is how I … [View More]

[issue41892] use both "for in" and "ElementTree.remove" has a index bug
by Eric V. Smith Oct. 1, 2020

Oct. 1, 2020

Eric V. Smith <eric(a)trueblade.com> added the comment: I can't say how ElementTree works without more checking, but this solution cannot work in general. Given a pointer to an object that's in a list, how would you get to the next item? Say the parent list-like object has a C array of pointers to the objects it contains, and removing one of the objects re-shuffles that list. How would keeping a pointer to the current object help you? In any event, I don't think this behavior is going … [View More]

by WoodyWoo Oct. 1, 2020

WoodyWoo <saulmatchless(a)163.com> added the comment: Could I say the mutable sequence containing not the object but the pointer like C++. So they can changed in def functions. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41892> _______________________________________
