[New-bugs-announce] [issue23912] Inconsistent whitespace/formatting in docs/reference/datamodel/Special Method Lookup

[James Edwards]

New submission from James Edwards:

There's inconsistent leading whitespace between the two classes in the 4th code snippet of the "Special Method Lookup" section.

https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#special-method-lookup

The (very substantial :) included patch makes both classes use consistent leading whitespace, that is PEP-8 conformant.

(This issue also exists in the Python 2 documentation[1], but since other things have changed -- e.g. print statement -> function, metaclass declaration -- the same patch won't apply cleanly.)
