[New-bugs-announce] [issue28739] PEP 498: docstrings as f-strings

[Yury Selivanov]

New submission from Yury Selivanov:

Can f-strings be used as docstrings?

Right now:

    class Foo:
       f'spam'
    Foo.__doc__ is None

I couldn't find that f-strings cannot be used as docstrings in neither PEP 498 not in the 3.6 documentation, so I suppose this is a bug.
