Agree with Marietta: it's valid, but lets change it to make it more 
approachable to non-native speakers.

2018-02-23 Thread Mariatta Wijaya 

Mariatta Wijaya  added the comment:

`while` and `whilst` are both valid english words, however I can understand if 
readers who don't primarily speak english can get confused.

I'll be open to change that to `while` just to make it friendlier to 
international readers.

Not a typo: it's a valid English word.

[issue32923] Typo in documentation of unittest: whilst instead of while

2018-02-23 Thread Тимофей Хирьянов 

New submission from Тимофей Хирьянов :

Typo is on the https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html page.

At bottom of the page you can see text: "unittest.removeHandler(function=None)
When called without arguments this function removes the control-c handler if it 
has been installed. This function can also be used as a test decorator to 
temporarily remove the handler whilst the test is being executed:"

Typo is: ST instead of E in the word "whilst".
