[issue1106] Error in random.shuffle

[Vizcaynot]

New submission from Vizcaynot:

In python 3.0a1 under Win XP SP2:
Typing next code:

import random
s=range(10)
random.shuffle(s)

I have next error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
  File "C:\python30\lib\random.py", line 262, in shuffle
x[i], x[j] = x[j], x[i]
TypeError: 'range' object does not support item assignment

It does not happen in python 2.5

[issue1092] Unexpected results in Tutorial about Unicode

Vizcaynot added the comment:

Thanks about the fixing info.
In relation to the second issue, I am afraid it is my fault, the value 
of variable "a" was asigned and filled with a previous valid operation. 
Please forgive me for the time you spent unnecessarily. I will attempt 
to be careful in the future.  :-(

[issue1092] Unexpected results in Tutorial about Unicode

[Vizcaynot]

New submission from Vizcaynot:

When trying the tutorial example about unicode  I have:
>>> "Äpfel".encode('utf-8')
  File "", line 1
SyntaxError: (unicode error) unexpected code byte

I live in a latin american country so I need to do:
>>> "Äpfel".decode('latin-1).encode('utf-8')
  File "", line 1
>>>
but the indentation " >>>" is new for me, so I attempt the next:
>>> a="Äpfel".decode('latin-1).encode('utf-8')
  File "", line 1
>>> a
b'\xc3\x84pfel'
>>> print (a)
Äpfel
>>>

Is this necessary to do correction to the tutorial? is this normal the 
presence of "   >>>" that appears indented once I assign the value to 
variable a?
Thanks!!
