Clearly the creator of doctests, Tim Peters, is a well-regarded person in the Python world. On the other hand, I was surprised to see some of the examples used in the present-day documentation in Tim's original 1999 message. I find it remarkable that in 18 years since then, no rewrite or editing has replaced those examples with better ones. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29428> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
