[issue10122] Documentation typo fix and a side question
Georg Brandl ge...@python.org added the comment: I don't waste my time by merging every little typo fix to the maintenance branches immediately; I rather merge them all at once every now and then. You will certainly understand that nobody is harmed by a stray d, even if it has a pointy tip. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10122 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10122] Documentation typo fix and a side question
New submission from Retro vinet...@gmail.com: Please read the first sentence of the docs for the built-in function getattr() here: http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html?highlight=getattr#getattr Fix the word 'attributed' to 'attribute', because the former is a typo. A side question. When you document an object's API in the docstring, you write it like this: getattr(object, name[, default]) - value Don't you find it nicer if that would look like this: getattr(object, name, [default]) - value Note the cosmetic fix between the arguments 'name' and 'default'. Do you find my fix acceptable? If yes, please fix docstrings in Python that document the object's API from the '...name[, default]...' format to '...name, [default]...' format. -- assignee: d...@python components: Documentation messages: 118869 nosy: Retro, d...@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Documentation typo fix and a side question versions: 3rd party, Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10122 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
