Raymond Hettinger <[email protected]> added the comment:
The docs look correct to me:
>>> class A:
pass
>>> hash(A())
274859987
User defined classes are in-fact hashable by default. Other methods can be
defined to change hashability, but they are not the default.
FWIW, it isn't the purpose of the glossary to be a language spec; rather, it is
to provide a rough meaning of what the word "hashable" means. Already, the
wording has exceeded its original intent. The correct place for a more
detailed specification in the language reference for object.__hash__():
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html?highlight=__hash__#object.__hash__
Thank you for the suggestion, but we'll pass on this one.
