Martin Panter added the comment: See Issue 23738 where my current patch proposes using the PEP 457 slash (/) notation in the RST documentation, including for eval(). I’m not sure if there is a clear concensus for applying my patch however. An alternative would be to use the square-bracket notation, and explain in the text that the default values are None.
See also Issue 21314 about explaining the slash notation used by Argument Clinic and pydoc. ---------- nosy: +martin.panter versions: -Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25810> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
