In case we are taking "not backporting anything at all" road, what is the best fix for the document? Old >>> itertools.repeat.__doc__ 'repeat(object [,times]) -> create an iterator which returns the object\nfor the specified number of times. If not specified, returns the object\nendlessly.' New >>> itertools.repeat.__doc__ 'repeat(object [,times]) -> create an iterator which returns the object\nfor the specified number of times. If not specified, returns the object\nendlessly. If times is specified through positional and negative numbers, it always means 0 repetitions. If times is specified through keyword and -1, it means endless repetition. Other negative numbers for times through keyword should be avoided.' _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
