New submission from Webb Scales : In Section 8.6 ("Function definitions"; https://docs.python.org/3/reference/compound_stmts.html#function-definitions), the definition of "parameter_list" looks slightly wrong: parameter_list ::= defparameter ("," defparameter)* "," "/" ["," [parameter_list_no_posonly]] | parameter_list_no_posonly The "/" (and the comma preceding it) is not a required component. (Sorry, I'm afraid I'm not smart enough right now to suggest a correction. :-p ) ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 392943 nosy: docs@python, webbnh priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: In documentation Section 8.6, the definition of parameter_list need correcting versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker https://bugs.python.org/issue44038 _______________________________________
