 In other words, ``date1 < date2`` if and only if ``date1.toordinal() <
- date2.toordinal()``. In order to stop comparison from falling back to the
- default scheme of comparing object addresses, date comparison normally raises
- :exc:`TypeError` if the other comparand isn't also a :class:`date` object.
- However, ``NotImplemented`` is returned instead if the other comparand has a
+ date2.toordinal()``. Date comparison raises :exc:`TypeError` if
+ the other comparand isn't also a :class:`date` object. However,
+ ``NotImplemented`` is returned instead if the other comparand has a
 :meth:`timetuple` attribute. This hook gives other kinds of date objects a
 chance at implementing mixed-type comparison. If not, when a :class:`date`
 object is compared to an object of a different type, :exc:`TypeError` is raised
