http://mail.python.org/pipermail/docs/2012-December/012028.html > Subject: [docs] FOO and BAR > > Do you think it would be possible to write your documentation avoiding the > silly usage of FOO and BAR everywhere? This is a very very old and boring > joke, and does nothing to clarify what you are trying to clarify. If you > could include real-world examples in your documentation, rather than "clever" > programmer "jokes", learners such as myself would have far more respect for > the good work you are obviously doing here. > > For example, the section on argparser is full of this sort of rubbish: > argparse.ArgumentParser(description='A foo that bars') > > Under what circumstances would you ever put that in a program? Are you mad? > > Please take this into consideration. ---------- nosy: +chris.jerdonek _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11176> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
