Summary: S.find documentation uses s[start, end] vs. s[start:end]

Initial Comment:
I think that s[start:end] in ''.find.__doc__ is more logical than s[start, end] in explaining what is searched when optional arguments for start and end of string to be searched are provided.  Maybe this is a convention I don't know about.
