Xiang Zhang added the comment: Hmm, David, that may be not quite right. Users only reading the doc never know it's deletechars not delete. The doc is always delete, though conflicting with __doc__.
>>> print(bytes.translate.__doc__) B.translate(table[, deletechars]) -> bytes ... I deliberately change deletechars to delete to keep consistent with doc. But actually I think using deletechars won't break backwards compatibility too. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27506> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
