Done, I renamed "adjusted" to "adjustable", fixed its value on Windows (time.time) and Linux (time.monotonic), and updated the doc. -- changeset: 77415:0e46e0cd368f tag: tip user: Victor Stinner <victor.stin...@gmail.com> date: Tue Jun 12 22:46:37 2012 +0200 files: Doc/library/time.rst Include/pytime.h Lib/test/test_time.py Misc/NEWS Modules/timemodule.c Python/pytime.c description: PEP 418: Rename adjusted attribute to adjustable in time.get_clock_info() result Fix also its value on Windows and Linux according to its documentation: "adjustable" indicates if the clock *can be* adjusted, not if it is or was adjusted. In most cases, it is not possible to indicate if a clock is or was adjusted. -- Basically, time.get_clock_info().adjustable is only True for time.time(). It can also be True for time.perf_counter() if time.monotonic() is not available. I prefer "adjustable" over "adjusted" because it is well defined and its value is well known. For example, it is not easy to say if time.monotonic() is "adjusted" or not on Linux, whereas I can say that time.monotonic() is not *adjustable* on any OS. I will update the PEP except if someone complains :-) Sorry for being late, but I was exhausted by this PEP.
