Hello, I notice that some FAQs are not only outdated but seem to favour a writing style that's quite lengthy and full of anecdotal details. It seems to me that there is value in giving terse answers in FAQs (we have - or should have - reference documentation where things are explained in more detail).
One primary example is the performance question: file:///home/antoine/cpython/32/Doc/build/html/faq/programming.html#my-program-is-too-slow-how-do-i-speed-it-up It mixes a couple of generalities with incredibly specific suggestions such as early binding of methods or use of default argument values to fold constants. I think a beginner reading this entry won't get any meaningful information out of it. Any advice on whether it's ok to hack and slash into the fat? :) Regards Antoine. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
