[New-bugs-announce] [issue19068] Some built-in complex docstrings are not PEP-8 compatible

[Marco Buttu]

New submission from Marco Buttu:

As reported in the title: 

>>> complex.conjugate.__doc__.splitlines()[-1]
'Returns the complex conjugate of its argument. (3-4j).conjugate() == 3+4j.'
>>> complex.__format__.__doc__.splitlines()[-1]
'Converts to a string according to format_spec.'

They should have been 'Return...' and 'Convert...'. Patch is attached
