New submission from Adam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: In section 4.4 of the Python Tutorial (http://docs.python.org/tut/node6.html) there is a code example using prime numbers that results extraneous output. The else is incorrectly indented one tab too far to the right and is nested under (for x in range) rather than (for n in range).
Current: >>> for n in range(2, 10): ... for x in range(2, n): ... if n % x == 0: ... print n, 'equals', x, '*', n/x ... break ... else: ... # loop fell through without finding a factor ... print n, 'is a prime number' ... Correct: >>> for n in range(2, 10): ... for x in range(2, n): ... if n % x == 0: ... print n, 'equals', x, '*', n/x ... break ... else: ... # loop fell through without finding a factor ... print n, 'is a prime number' ... ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 70613 nosy: georg.brandl, yoshokun severity: normal status: open title: Example Code Error in Tutorial Documentation _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3490> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
