[New-bugs-announce] [issue14918] Incorrect explanation of TypeError exception

[Thanos Tsouanas]

New submission from Thanos Tsouanas <thanos at sians.org>:

# This correctly raises a type error, but the explanation
# that comes with it is bad:

def foo(x, y, z=28):
    return

foo(x, z=8)

# TypeError: foo() takes at least 2 arguments (2 given)
