New submission from Jonathan Fine <jfine2...@gmail.com>:
The docs contain a very useful page https://docs.python.org/3.5/glossary.html. However, the search feature does not index the glossary. Thus, the search https://docs.python.org/3.5/search.html?q=iterable does not produce the helpful glossary entry === iterable An object capable of returning its members one at a time. Examples of iterables include all sequence types (such as list, str, and tuple) and some non-sequence types like dict, file objects, and objects of any [...] === #788509 is the only docs issue I could find, whose title contains glossary. It gives insight into the thoughts then about the tutorial. In msg44460 Skip Montaro says (1) that the glossary is "for the tutorial", and (2) he'd like to improve links into the tutorial. I suggest that part of the fix for this issue is on the home page page Glossary in the first grouping "Parts of the documentation." ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 323503 nosy: docs@python, jfine2358 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Docs search does not index glossary type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34398> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
