New submission from Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu>: The entry for bytearray(source...) says " The optional source parameter can be used to initialize the array in a few different ways: ... If it is an integer, the array will have that size and will be initialized with null bytes. ... Without an argument, an array of size 0 is created. " [integer must be non-negative -- patch adds this] The entry for bytes(source...) refers back to the bytearray entry.
The docstrings for bytes and bytearray omit both possibilities. Attached is a possible patch to include them. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: zbytes.diff keywords: patch messages: 129299 nosy: docs@python, terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Document byte[s|array]() and byte[s|array](count) in docstrings versions: Python 3.2, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20877/zbytes.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11310> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
