• What's New In Python 3.0

  ...class() by 50-70%, so as to match Python 2.5 speed despite the __instancecheck__ / __subclasscheck__ mechanism. In the process, fix a bug where isinstance() and issubclass(), when given a tuple of classes as second argument, were looking up __instancecheck__ / __subclasscheck__ on the tuple rather than on each type object. Issue #3663: Py_None was decref'd when printing SyntaxErrors. Issue #3651: Fix various memory leaks when using the buffer interface, or when the "s#" code of PyArg_P...

• Notes

  ...class method (e.g. BaseClass.__init__(self)), this is now allowed even if self is not strictly spoken a class instance (e.g. when using metaclasses or the Don Beaudry hook). Slice objects are now comparable but not hashable; this prevents dict[:] from being accepted but meaningless. Complex division is now calculated using less braindead algorithms. This doesn't change semantics except it's more likely to give useful results in extreme cases. Complex repr() now uses full precision like float re...

• Notes

  ...classes of string can no longer be interned. The semantics of interning were not clear here -- a subclass could be mutable, for example -- and had bugs. Explicitly interning a subclass of string via intern() will raise a TypeError. Internal operations that attempt to intern a string subclass will have no effect. Bug 1003935: xrange() could report bogus OverflowErrors. Documented what xrange() intends, and repaired tests accordingly. Extension modules difflib now supports HTML side-by-si...

• PSF Bylaws

  ...class of members (if the members are divided into classes), one third (1/3) of such class of members, represented in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of such item of business by that class of members.

Approved 8-0-0, December 2, 2016 RESOLVED, that the Python Software Foundation grant $430 USD to PyLadies Data Mining Wo...

• Built-in Package Support in Python 1.5

  ...class or variable. The import statement first tests whether the item is defined in the package; if not, it assumes it is a module and attempts to load it. If it fails to find it, ImportError is raised. Contrarily, when using syntax like import item.subitem.subsubitem, each item except for the last must be a package; the last item can be a module or a package but can't be a class or function or variable defined in the previous item. Importing * From a Package; the __all__ Attribut...
