New submission from Andrew Scheller: The documentation for time.struct_time (in Doc/library/time.rst) explains tm_isdst as "0, 1 or -1; see below" but then doesn't really go into further detail below, other than to say "A -1 argument as the daylight savings flag, passed to mktime() will usually result in the correct daylight savings state to be filled in.".
In Modules/timemodule.c there's a section which says: {"tm_isdst", "1 if summer time is in effect, 0 if not, and -1 if unknown"}, IMHO it would be nice if this more accurate info was also present in the HTML documentation. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 216158 nosy: docs@python, lurchman priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Minor struct_time documentation bug type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21221> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
