Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Documentation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Collin Winter (collinwinter) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) >Summary: Incorrect docs for return values of set update methods Initial Comment: The documentation for set.update(), set.intersection_update(), set.difference_update() and set.symmetric_difference_update currently (as of r41806) states that these methods all return the updated set, implying that this is a not-in-place change. In fact, these methods do operate in place, each one of them returning None. The attached diff (against Doc/lib/libstdtypes.tex, r41806) fixes this, making it clear that these are in-place operations. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1389673&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
