Summary: Mistakes in decimal.Context.subtract documentation
Initial Comment:
The subtract method of the decimal.Context object is
misspelled as
substract
in the online html documentation for the decimal
module, section 5.6.3.
At the Python interactive prompt:
>>> import decimal
>>> help(decimal.Context.subtract)
Help on method subtract in module decimal:
subtract(self, a, b) unbound decimal.Context method
Return the sum of the two operands.
<snip doctest examples>
That description should read:
Returns the difference between a and b.
