New submission from Mitchell Model <m...@acm.org>:

Strangely, the extensive documentation of the property function in the 
"Built-in Functions" of the documentation has no example of the use of a 
property. Readers unfamiliar with properties should be told that obj.x invokes 
the getter, obj.x=value the setter, etc. The lack of parentheses is 
particularly significant.
