[issue45003] Documentation wrote __div__ instead of __truediv__
New submission from Calo : The Python Language Reference, Chapter 6 (Expressions), Section 7 (Binary arithmetic operations) in Python version 3.9 has a sentence which reads: "This operation can be customized using the special __div__() and __floordiv__() methods." To my knowledge, when Python 3 was released, true division became the default, and __div__ became useless as well. Thus, I believe this part of the documentation should be changed to "[...] __truediv__() and __floordiv__() methods." to avoid misleading others. P.S. This is my first time submitting a Python bug report, I'm just a Python enthusiast and I'm not familiar at all with these official bug reports (I have read https://docs.python.org/3/bugs.html though!), so please let me know and correct me if I've done something incorrectly! Thanks! -- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 400279 nosy: docs@python, objectivitix priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Documentation wrote __div__ instead of __truediv__ versions: Python 3.9 ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue45003> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
