Summary: Parameter is misnamed in str.replace documentation.
Initial Comment:
>>> print str.replace.__doc__
S.replace (old, new[, maxsplit]) -> string
Return a copy of string S with all occurrences of substring
old replaced by new. If the optional argument maxsplit is
given, only the first maxsplit occurrences are replaced.
---
Honestly, that optional parameter really shouldn't be
called "maxsplit" since there's no splitting going on.
Just plain "max" would be better.
