New submission from chrysn: The function binascii.{un,}hexlify and bytes.{,to}hex do almost the same things (plus/minus details of whether they accept whitespace, and whether the hex-encoded data is accepted/returned as strings or bytes).
I think that it would help users to point that out in the documentation, eg. by adding a "Similar functionality is provided by the ... function." lines at the ends of the functions' documentations. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 290050 nosy: chrysn, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: links between binascii.{un,}hexlify / bytes.{,to}hex type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29886> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
