[issue13613] Small error in regular expression poker hand example
New submission from Edmund Eyles : The documentation for Python 2.7.2 has a section of examples for the regular expression match() function, based on a poker hand, at section 7.2.6.1. These examples show a suit of cards as having 14 cards! The ace is counted twice, as '1' and 'a'. Remind me not to play poker against the author. I would suggest changing the range of the characters that represent the cards' denominations to [2-9tjqka], with a 't' representing a 10, rather than using a '0', and not using either the '0' or the '1'. -- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 149619 nosy: Eddie E, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Small error in regular expression poker hand example type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue13613> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue5935] Better documentation of use of BROWSER environment variable
New submission from Edmund Eyles : The documentation for the webbrowser module at http://www.python.org/doc/2.5/lib/module-webbrowser.html refers to the use of the BROWSER environment variable as a means to control which browser is run. However, it makes no mention of how the browser name(s) in this environment variable get translated into executables, particularly the process by which the only directories to be searched are those in the PATH environment variable. For instance, on my Windows PC where the default browser is IE, simply setting BROWSER to 'firefox' has no effect. I also need to add 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox' to PATH, after which Firefox actually gets run. -- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 87200 nosy: Eddie E, georg.brandl severity: normal status: open title: Better documentation of use of BROWSER environment variable type: feature request versions: Python 2.5 ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue5935> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
