New submission from Adrián Deccico :

Hi, in this document: 

Idioms and Anti-Idioms in Python

In the "except" section, where it says:

"The example above is better written"

it should said: 

"The example below is better written"

Hi Georg,

Ok, so perhaps the text is a little confusing. Perhaps it would be a
good idea to add a colon or as you state the words "like this"

thanks

[issue8522] enhacement proposal in http://docs.python.org/howto/doanddont.html

2010-04-24 Thread Adrián Deccico 

New submission from Adrián Deccico :

Hi, in "Exceptions" section. 

Instead of using:

def get_status(file):
fp = open(file)
try:
return fp.readline()
finally:
fp.close()

Why no suggest this method:

def get_status(file):
with open(file) as fp:
return fp.readline()


which will properly close the file.
