[New-bugs-announce] [issue28244] Incorrect Example in itertools.product description

[Matthew Ekstrand-Abueg]

New submission from Matthew Ekstrand-Abueg:

Documentation states:

    # product('ABCD', 'xy') --> Ax Ay Bx By Cx Cy Dx Dy
    # product(range(2), repeat=3) --> 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 

But:

>>> list(itertools.product('ABCD','xy'))
[('A', 'x'), ('A', 'y'), ('B', 'x'), ('B', 'y'), ('C', 'x'), ('C', 'y'), ('D', 'x'), ('D', 'y')]
