* bpo-29463: Add docstring field to some AST nodes.
ClassDef, ModuleDef, FunctionDef, and AsyncFunctionDef has docstring
field for now. It was first statement of there body.
* fix document. thanks travis!
* doc fixes

This commit undeprecates these functions and adds a note to ignore
previous deprecation notices.
As of Python 3.6 **kwargs are ordered, thus, remove the paragraph stating that
ordering is undefined and change snippet to remove the unecessary sorted call.
* Add sentence mentioning guaranteed output order of kwargs
* bpo-29026: Clarity documentation of time.time
Clarify the documentation of time.time by more
precisely defining what is meant by "seconds since
the epoch" on most platforms. Additionally explain
how gmtime and localtime may be used to extract
calendar components and convert to a more common
date format.
* bpo-29026: Minor improvements for time.time doc
* bpo-29026: Consistency fixes for time.time doc
rstlint.py run by "make check" doesn't support Python 2.
"make venv" runs "$(PYTHON) -m venv", whereas Python 2 doens't
provide the venv module: it's a module of Python 3 standard library.
"appears to not work in all cases" does not inspire confidence in this
module. I can find no context for what bug this was referencing so it
should be removed.
Currently, http://buildbot.python.org/all/buildslaves/ware-docs
buildbot is only run as post-commit. For example, bpo-29521 (PR#41)
introduced two warnings, unnotified by the Travis CI docs job.
Modify the docs job to run toosl/rstlint.py.
Fix also the two minor warnings which causes the buildbot slave to
fail.
Much of bpo-29521 was fixed in parallel with commit
e7ffb99 . This cleans up the rest.
Apply parallel change to Doc/make.bat to read
"set SPHINXOPTS=-D latex_elements.papersize="
I don't have a Windows system on which to observe the warning,
but it should be necessary.
The warning:
.../workspace/cpython_github/Doc/faq/windows.rst:303:
WARNING: unknown option: -t
In the Windows FAQ, `How do I keep editors from inserting tabs
into my Python source?`, contained a reference to a Python -t
option. In Python 2.x, this caused Python to issue warnings
about lines with mixed spaces and tabs, but as of Python 3.6
it does nothing.
Per discussion at http://bugs.python.org/issue29387, take
their wording. Python [3] raises an IndentationError or
TabError. Tabnanny is now a module.
* bpo-28929: Link the documentation to its source file on GitHub
Change the documentation's `Show Source` link on the left menu
to GitHub source file.
* change version to master
* The struct module now requires contiguous buffers.
* Convert most functions and methods of the _struct module to Argument Clinic
* Use "Py_buffer" type for the "buffer" argument. Argument Clinic is
responsible to create and release the Py_buffer object.
* Use "PyStructObject *" type for self to avoid explicit conversions.
* Add an unit test on the _struct.Struct.unpack_from() method to test passing
arguments as keywords.
* Rephrase docstrings.
* Rename "fmt" argument to "format" in docstrings and the documentation.
As a side effect, functions and methods which used METH_VARARGS calling
convention like struct.pack() now use the METH_FASTCALL calling convention
which avoids the creation of temporary tuple to pass positional arguments and
so is faster. For example, struct.pack("i", 1) becomes 1.56x faster (-36%)::
$ ./python -m perf timeit \
-s 'import struct; pack=struct.pack' 'pack("i", 1)' \
--compare-to=../default-ref/python
Median +- std dev: 119 ns +- 1 ns -> 76.8 ns +- 0.4 ns: 1.56x faster (-36%)
Significant (t=295.91)
Patch co-written with Serhiy Storchaka.
