R. David Murray added the comment: I think you meant "the language reference" rather than "the devguide". The sentence about the comment is redundant with the preceding line that says that the thing that results in a join is a physical line that ends with a backslash ("that is not part of..."), which is a definitive statement that no characters may follow it.
So, I don't see any doc bug here, unless we want to delete that redundant statement about the comment because it is confusing. But I doubt we want to do that, as some people will think that a comment is "the same as there being nothing" (despite the statement about "physical line") which it is not. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29968> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
