Chris Jerdonek added the comment: To make it easier to make progress on this docstring issue, I created issue 16036 to focus on int()'s reST documentation. (I have a comment on that aspect.) This will allow the current issue to focus on the docstring aspect. ---------- nosy: +chris.jerdonek _______________________________________ Python tracker <report at bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14783> _______________________________________
