[issue40393] Auto-response from Python Help points to Python 2 reference

2020-04-26 Thread J Arun Mani


New submission from J Arun Mani :

In the auto-response sent by python-help-boun...@python.org, at some 
intermediate paragraphs:
...
The most comprehensive overview of python.org help resources is at

http://www.python.org/about/help/

The Python FAQ is available at

http://docs.python.org/2/faq/index.html

and it has answers to many questions that people ask, possibly...

The link : http://docs.python.org/2/faq/index.html points to Python 2 
resources, please change it to point Python 3 FAQ, i.e. 
https://docs.python.org/3/faq/index.html

The `http` in links can also be changed to `https. It doesn't help anyway as 
the link automatically takes to `https` sites.
Thanks.

[issue40846] Misleading line in documentation

2020-06-02 Thread J Arun Mani


New submission from J Arun Mani :

Hi.

 In docs : 
https://docs.python.org/3/faq/programming.html#faq-argument-vs-parameter it 
says "Parameters define what types of arguments a function can accept."
 This is not true. Python's functions do not impose any type checking or raise 
error when the argument's type is not matching it's type hint. Please change 
the line to a better one. Maybe "Parameters define the names that will hold the 
supplied arguments."

Thanks ^^
