Summary: missing "is" in "sys.exit" doc string

Initial Comment:
calling 

>>> help (sys.exit)

gives:

exit(...)
    exit([status])
    
    Exit the interpreter by raising SystemExit(status).
    If the status is omitted or None, it defaults to
zero (i.e., success).
    If the status numeric, it will be used as the
system exit status.
    If it is another kind of object, it will be printed
and the system
    exit status will be one (i.e., failure).

I think the line on numeric argument should read:

If the status is numeric, it will be used as the system
exit status.

greetings
