New submission from Борис Верховский <boris.v...@gmail.com>:
The documentation https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html#random.Random says: > class random.Random([seed])¶ But in reality the parameter is called "x" not "seed" (CPython 3.9): >>> import random >>> random.Random(seed=0) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'seed' >>> random.Random(x=0) <random.Random object at 0x20ddc10> Same goes for random.SystemRandom It would be better to rename "x" to "seed" but that's not backwards compatible. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 386052 nosy: boris priority: normal pull_requests: 23224 severity: normal status: open title: The optional argument to random.Random() is called "x" not "seed" type: enhancement versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43089> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
