Lew Kurtz  added the comment:

Removed the ellipses from the examples, so not confused with continuation 
prompt. Is clearer now.

[issue33460] ... used to indicate many different things in chapter 3, some are confusing

2018-05-10 Thread Lew Kurtz

New submission from Lew Kurtz :

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/introduction.html
uses ... to mean 5 or 6 different things. Since ... is continuation prompt, 
some of these other uses on that page are confusing - at least they were to 
this newbie. The most confusing are where it is used to hide output in the 
error messages.

If someone has the patience to send me pointers on how to fix this, I would 
love to fix this myself. -Lew

ps. the section headers in chapter 3 also need some work, 3.1.1 is the only 
section that is really about python being a calculator 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 don't 
seem very 'calculator-y' - Id like to fix this too.
