New submission from Toby Donaldson <tjdonaldson at gmail.com>:

The doc string for zfill use the variable name "x" when it should
probably be using the variable name "S".

>>> print(''.zfill.__doc__)
S.zfill(width) -> str

Pad a numeric string x with zeros on the left, to fill a field
of the specified width. The string x is never truncated.
