Comment (by davidloeffler):
From your patch:
{{{
INPUT:
- R - a ring or field
OUTPUT:
- TRUE - if R is QQ or a finite field GF(p) for p prime.
- FALSE - otherwise
}}}
This isn't correct ReST formatting (building this will give a warning
about "unexpected indent"). Moreover Python's booleans are {{{ True /
False }}}, not {{{ TRUE / FALSE }}} (it's rude to shout :-) So it would be
better as
{{{
INPUT:
- R - a ring or field
OUTPUT:
- True - if R is `\QQ` or a finite field `GF(p)` for p prime.
- False - otherwise
}}}
Note the blank line after the list headings, no extra indentation (not
needed for bulleted lists), and the backticks for LaTeX formulae
({{{`\QQ`}}} is a predefined macro).
Sorry to torture you so much over one tiny (and deprecated!) function...
