New submission from Chris Rebert <pyb...@rebertia.com>:
The entry for "dictionary" reads in part:
[...] The keys can be any object with __hash__() function and __eq__()
methods. [...]
__hash__() is a method, not a function (well, it's a "hash function" in the
computer science sense, but it's still confusing even if that reading is what
was intended; I think delegating the hashing part of the explanation to
__hash__()'s docs is fine). Remove the word "function" from said sentence.
