Case Van Horsen <casevh@gmail.com> added the comment: I edited the doc string for math.modf since an indent of 8 spaces is used for the doc string with help(math). An indent of 4 spaces is used with help(math.modf). I've attached a new patch for just the math module that includes the return type as part of signature line, corrects the width issues, and uses a consistent format for defining the doc strings. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file18761/math_docstring.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9739> _______________________________________
