For 4.2, the point is the '.copy()' versus the 'active_users' copy. I think a real beginner would, or should, ignore any other details not immediately familiar. 4.7.2 Keyword arguments. It is simply a fact that including the full discussion here requires the forward references. I think splitting the discussion and moving this part somewhere later would be worse. Some will not be able to "follow the tutorial in sequence". It is not a novel. I think you should close this. It makes observations but does not have any concrete suggestions for improvements, and unlike your other posts, I don't see that it might lead to any. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy title: Use of dicts in sections 4.2 and 4.7 of Python tutorial a bit confusing -> Use of dicts in 4.2 and 4.7 of Python tutorial a bit confusing _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43056> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
