New submission from Chris Angelico: The timeit module is commonly used via the convenience function timeit.timeit, which is listed in the documentation as the recommended "Python Interface": http://docs.python.org/3/library/timeit.html
However, this function is not listed in __all__, meaning that it does not come up in IDLE when Ctrl-Space is pressed. It is also not mentioned in the module docstring, which says "Library usage: see the Timer class.". Same applies to timeit.repeat(), save that it's not as commonly used. Both are listed in the online docs but not in the docstring or __all__. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 184147 nosy: Rosuav, terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: timeit.timeit not in __all__ even though documented type: enhancement versions: Python 2.6, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17414> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
