New submission from Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org>:
I was looking for the docs for 'map' and tried to use the search box on docs.python.org. This gave a lot of things whose name started with or contained 'map', but the entry for the builtin map() function was hidden really far down under the heading "Builtin Functions" (https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/functions.html?highlight=map) rather than deep-linking to the entry I was looking for (https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/functions.html#map). I'm sure that some tweak to the index builder could fix this, in general, for all builtin functions and types (many of which I imagine suffer from the effect -- having a short name that is used a lot as a part of other names). ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 403245 nosy: docs@python, gvanrossum priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Can't find "map" with search on docs.python.org type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45378> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
