Category: Documentation Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Marko Kreen (mkz) Assigned to: Fred L. Drake, Jr. (fdrake) Summary: bug in unichr() documentation Initial Comment: http://www.python.org/doc/2.4/lib/built-in-funcs.html: > Return the Unicode string of one character whose Unicode > code is the integer i. > [...] > The argument must be in the range [0..65535], inclusive. unichr.__doc_ says: > Return a Unicode string of one character with ordinal i; 0 <= i <= 0x10ffff. Which is correct? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Fred L.

That was rather confusing. Ok, attached path clarifies unichr() range. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: M.-A. Lemburg (lemburg) Date: 2005-02-11 09:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=38388 Whether unichr() handles the UCS2 or the UCS4 range depends on the configuration option you set at Python compile time. Perhaps we should extend the documentation to mention this difference ?! Doc patches are welcome :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1120777&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
