I don't think we need to document AssertionError in older Python versions. This is an implementation detail. We don't document all exceptions that can be raised with improper use of the API. Just don't do this. In addition, using the assert statement for validating user input or the object state which depends on user actions is a bad style. We shouldn't encourage this by documenting it as a behavior of the stdlib. It was a bug, and it is fixed now. ---------- resolution: -> fixed stage: patch review -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue22872> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
