Terry J. Reedy added the comment: I fully agree that help(bound method) should be consistent. I just feel that it should be consistently correct ;-).
Help(ob) is intended for interactive use (Guido has said, but feel free to ask again), and indeed, is an optional interactive feature, and not a built-in. So I believe we are free to change the output to something better (as with Exception messages). For some things (classes), it prints out too much and Guido would like a bit less printed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20379> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
