[issue21554] Possible Error in Brief Tour of the Standard Library

2014-05-22 Thread Erik Kusko

New submission from Erik Kusko:

In https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/stdlib.html, there is an example:

 import shutil
 shutil.copyfile('data.db', 'archive.db')
 shutil.move('/build/executables', 'installdir')

Should it not be:

 import shutil
 shutil.copyfile('data.db', 'archive.db')
'archive.db'
 shutil.move('/build/executables', 'installdir')
'installdir'

?  I am run under Windows, so I don't know if the behavior is different than 
under Linux.  Under Windows the destination file and destination directory, 
respectively, are echoed to stdout.
