SilentGhost  added the comment:

Did you try running that? The documentation is correct, dropwhile works 
differently than filter.

[issue40664] Documentation error: itertools.dropwhile(is_even, itertools.count()) output

[Nicolas Gimenez]

New submission from Nicolas Gimenez :

On this page:
https://docs.python.org/3/howto/functional.html
The example:

"itertools.dropwhile(is_even, itertools.count()) =>
  1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, ..."

is wrong. It should be:

"itertools.dropwhile(is_even, itertools.count()) =>
  1, 3, 5, 7, 9, ..."
