Package: ipython Version: 5.1.0-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? Nothing unusual, just "apt install python-ipython ipython" * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? In [1]: s = isinstance? * What was the outcome of this action? In [1]: s = isinstance? Docstring: isinstance(object, class-or-type-or-tuple) -> bool Return whether an object is an instance of a class or of a subclass thereof. With a type as second argument, return whether that is the object's type. The form using a tuple, isinstance(x, (A, B, ...)), is a shortcut for isinstance(x, A) or isinstance(x, B) or ... (etc.). Type: builtin_function_or_method In [2]: s = isinstance?
