New submission from Jon: The documentation for the del keyword in the language reference doesn't mention the name binding behaviour:
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#grammar-token-del_stmt It is mentioned in section 4.1 where it says: "A target occurring in a del statement is also considered bound for this purpose" But it's really not obvious to look there when trying to understand what del does. It would be great if this information were added or a reference made to the other section. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 243163 nosy: docs@python, jc13 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: del statement documentation doesn't mention name binding behaviour type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24187> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
