Chris Jerdonek added the comment: We could start by establishing the argument/parameter distinction in the glossary. Currently, the word "parameter" does not appear in the glossary, and the definition of "argument" blurs the distinction between the two:
For example, in the following definition of "argument"-- "argument: A value passed to a function or method, assigned to a named local variable in the function body. A function or method may have both positional arguments and keyword arguments in its definition..." (from http://docs.python.org/dev/glossary.html#term-argument ) the second sentence is actually talking about parameters. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15990> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
