Summary: Word should be changed on page 3.6.1

Initial Comment:

The documentation currently reads as follows:

startswith(  	prefix[, start[, end]])
    Return True if string starts with the prefix,
otherwise return False. prefix can also be a tuple of
suffixes to look for. With optional start, test string
beginning at that position. With optional end, stop
comparing string at that position.

    Changed in version 2.5: Accept tuples as prefix. 


I believe that in the line that starts with "prefix can
also...", the word suffixes should be changed to the
word prefixes.

Thanks for all the good work.  Let me know if you have
any questions.
