Searching further, none of the uses of "coerce" or "coercion" in the docs seem to be a good match for the definition in this glossary entry. For example, from ipaddress.rst: > By default, attempting to create a network object with host bits set will result in :exc:`ValueError` being raised. To request that the additional bits instead be coerced to zero, the flag ``strict=False`` can be passed to the constructor and from configparser.rst: > A convenience method which coerces the *option* in the specified *section* to > an integer. etc. I think we should just get rid of the glossary entry. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44651> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
