Jaivish Kothari,

Thanks for making the effort to contribute. Can I suggest you have a
look at the Core Mentorship site:

  http://pythonmentors.com/

and perhaps join the Core Mentorship list:

Jaivish Kothari added the comment:

Thanks for support . I agree it is not a bug at all but just as Tim said it 
would be easy to copy paste code directly to interpreter with such changes. 
This was my first contribution in python though not accepted , it is ok :) . 
I'll try to contribute more towards it .Thanks for commenting . Could you guys 
suggest some issues i could work on as a beginner :)

2015-04-19 Thread Berker Peksag

Berker Peksag added the comment:

That document is 10 years old :) I don't think it's worth to change now. Also, 
what's new documents shouldn't be used as a tutorial. There are many 
tutorials about writing decorators on the internet.

(Thanks for the report and the patch, Jaivish)

2015-04-19 Thread Carol Willing

Carol Willing added the comment:

janonymous, Thanks for the contribution. I agree with George that this is not a 
bug. The whitespace exists for developer readability and maintainability of 
code. Here's a section from PEP8 about the use of whitespace 
(https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#id15). I am closing this issue as 
not a bug. I do hope you will contribute to Python again. Thanks.

Close as not a bug.

2015-04-19 Thread Tim Golden

Tim Golden added the comment:

One small thing to bear in mind is that the existing code (ie with the extra 
linefeed) raises an IndentationError if cut-and-pasted into the interactive 
interpreter; with the OP's change, it succeeds. Might not have been their 
intention, but certainly is the case.

(Doesn't make it a bug, as such, but makes it more than a stylistic difference 
of opinion).

2015-04-19 Thread Carol Willing

Carol Willing added the comment:

Tim, A good point re: the interpreter. I've attached an output from IPython 
interpreter.

Georg, Given Tim's additional insight, I'm inclined to reopen the issue and 
review the patch as a positive change. Though not a bug, but as an enhancement 
for learners to copy-paste doc code into an interpreter. Thoughts?

2015-04-19 Thread Tim Golden

Tim Golden added the comment:

(Laughs). I admit, I was so close to the trees, I missed the fact that 
the doc is, as you say, a What's New, and for Python 2.4. Agree that to 
change this now would be somewhat ludicrous.

If some similar patch were proposed to some more current, relevant 
document I'd still be at least open to the change proposed for the 
reasons I gave but let's close this one now.
