Guido van Rossum c2ae605f20 Record recent changes of heart (see python-dev):
- No warnings for operations that changed semantics between 2.3 and 2.4.

- Trailing 'L' remains in repr() of long ints until Python 3.0.

Guido van Rossum d21c2362e1 Remove vestigial reference to __reversed__. 2003-11-06 05:32:14 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger f2ac224b3f Take the __reversed__ protocol out of the pep.
It's champions can argue their case elsewhere.
Good luck to them.

Raymond Hettinger 1ae49ce2cc Three PEP updates:
* Correct the pure python implementation.
* Link to an implementation patch on SF.
* Remove the proposed application of __reverse__ to enumerate().
2003-11-02 07:12:04 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger a232b370a0 Update PEP based on discussion on comp.lang.python:
* reversed() is being preferred to ireverse() as the best name.

* the sample implementation now shows a check for a custom reverse
  method and a guard against being applied to a mapping.

* added sample output for enumerate.__reversed__ to show an example of
  how a custom reverse method would work

* explained why the function is proposed as a builtin.

* expanded a couple for the real world use cases to show what the
  replacement code would look like.

* improved markup so that the function names get italicized.

Alex Martelli 36e7a69be3 Rewritten, with removal of deep-copying ideas, but otherwise many additions of
details and examples, as per feedback received on python-dev.

Raymond Hettinger f7f0a4d4ea No one likes the name inreverse(). 2003-10-28 22:39:22 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger e680cb67de The alternative builtin needed a better name. 2003-10-28 21:21:31 +00:00

Raymond Hettinger 068cdefc0d Fix typo 2003-10-24 01:29:14 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 216bc1e95d Fix typo.
While fixing the typo, I noticed the list of patch czars is incomplete,
   so it also got updated.  If any of them are wrong, please correct them.
E-mail addresses removed; they don't seem very useful in this PEP.

Raymond Hettinger 851181bca6 Remove discussion of loop variables in the form x[a] or x.a.
Deprecation of that form is a subject encompassing all for-loop constructs
and is not specific to this PEP.  Also, most people are not aware that those
forms are even possible, so it is prudent to not even bring it up as that
would inevitably increase the number of people trying it in their code.

Guido van Rossum f7361e1f66 Add lots of detail and examples to the Details section. Free
variables are now captured at definition time.
2003-10-23 06:36:37 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 1a2ad824e4 * Remove claim to minimize use of reduce()
* Add claim to minimize use of lambda.
* Remove details of proposed new accumulator functions.
* Reference Jeff Epler's proof-of-concept patch.
* Minor wording improvements everywhere.

Fred Drake b4dfe2fcd9 when documentation is unpacked on the python.org server, directory
permissions must be updated so the other webmasters can help manage

Fred Drake 22d5357928 remove duplicate description of the final changes made in the
documentation release, and add a note that they're described in a
separate step (down near "send the release announcement")

Fred Drake 2aa4a939f1 Add instructions for updating the doc/ are of the website.
This probably needs further elaboration; I'm not sure this really even
belongs in the PEP, though.

Fred Drake 41b0a48d85 Remove instructions for building the HTML Help; they are now part of
PEP 101.
2003-09-30 04:51:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 4de8d6823c Move instructions for building the HTML Help into PEP 101 from PEP 102; this
locates all the instructions for building documentation in one of the PEPs;
the other incorporates the instructions by reference.
2003-09-30 04:49:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 69eb8f0f61 describe the commands needed to build the documetation and post it in
the FTP area of python.org
2003-09-30 04:35:01 +00:00
Fred Drake ca50274a4b Update some of the information about documentation build procedures.
Much of it was outdated.  I still need to document *how* some of the
steps are carried out.
2003-09-30 03:46:52 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger cec064b24f * Rename the proposed method to "iterreverse"
