[issue30435] Documentation either unclear or incorrect on comparisons between bytes and strings in Python 3

2017-05-23 Thread Brian Ward 

Brian Ward added the comment:

The "should" recommendation seems like the right direction, but feels like it 
needs an explanation (in case someone's trying to run some 2.7 code and is 
wondering why their comparisons don't work anymore). Unfortunately, it's a 
little complicated to pile into a section like this. Putting it somewhere else 
(that includes a reference to -b) might work.

A somewhat related aside is that I've sometimes thought that there ought to be 
something a little more extensive regarding converting bytes to strings, as 
it's the kind of thing that can lead you down this road anyway.

[issue31714] Improve re documentation

2017-10-06 Thread Brian Ward 

Brian Ward  added the comment:

In re.rst, the instances of "Correcsponds the" should be "Corresponds to the" 
and "Doesn't have correcsponding inline flag" should be "No corresponding 
inline flag."
