New submission from Gordon P. Hemsley <gphems...@gphemsley.org>: https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#old-string-formatting still lists the 'u' string formatting option, described as "Obsolete type – it is identical to 'd'." and linking to PEP 237.
However, testing indicates that Python 3 does not support a 'u' option and my archaeology suggests that such support was removed in Python 2.4. It seems this has flown under the radar for quite some time. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 371474 nosy: alexandre.vassalotti, benjamin.peterson, berker.peksag, christian.heimes, docs@python, eli.bendersky, ezio.melotti, georg.brandl, gphemsley, martin.panter, ncoghlan, rhettinger priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Documentation still mentions 'u' string formatting option type: behavior versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40971> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
