New submission from Pablo Galindo Salgado <pablog...@gmail.com>:
We currently say:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/pgalindo3/github/python/master/lel.py", line 5, in <module>
A().foo(1,2)
TypeError: foo() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given
but we should say:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/pgalindo3/github/python/master/lel.py", line 5, in <module>
A().foo(1,2)
TypeError: A.foo() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given. Did you
forget 'self' in the method definition?
