Summary: Tutorial section 9.5.1 ignores MRO for new-style classes
Initial Comment:
Section 9.5.1 ("Multiple Inheritance") of the tutorial
(as viewed on http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.2/tut/)
discusses the Method Resolution Order (MRO) for classes
with multiple inheritance.
However, the 2nd paragraph incorrectly states that "The
only rule necessary to explain the semantics is the
resolution rule used for class attribute references.
This is depth-first, left-to-right". Whilst this is
true for old-style classes, new-style classes use a
different MRO (as documented elsewhere - eg.
http://www.python.org/2.3/mro.html)
