2007-11-26 Thread Jim Jewett

New submission from Jim Jewett:

http://docs.python.org/lib/typesnumeric.html contains a table listing the 
mathematical operators.  Please add a note to the final row (x ** y meaning 
x to the power y) indicating that Python has chosen to define 0**0==1
Note 6:  Python defines 0**0 to be 1.  For background, please see http://
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation#Zero_to_the_zero_power

This doc change should have prevented issue 1461; I *think* there have been 
similar issues in the past.

(Can you also submit a doc fix that would have prevented issue 1500? :-)
