Please visit the following link and fix the below text: http://docs.python.org/library/unittest.html#unittest.TestCase.assertEqual Changed in version 2.7: Added the automatic calling of >>>type-specific<<< equality function. Just add the hyphen. Thanks.

Also http://guide.python-distribute.org/quickstart.html#lay-out-your-project needs to have the first sentence fixed: "python" to "Python" and http://docs.python.org/library/functools.html#functools.cmp_to_key needs to have the word "Py3.x" fixed to "Python 3" (note: not to "Python 3.x" because functools.reduce() function also has the word "Python 3", so be consistent)

I fixed both 'type-specific' and 'Python 3'. The python-distribute link is not part of our documentation so I can't fix it.

There's also one more typo in the doc for cmp_to_key() function. Fix the first sentence "Transform an old-style comparison function to a key-function." to "Transform an old-style comparison function to a key function." (note the removal of the hyphen between words "key" and "function") http://docs.python.org/library/functools.html#functools.cmp_to_key

Found one little bug again in http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#sequence-types-str-unicode-list-tuple-bytearray-buffer-xrange Look at the table with the fields Operation, Result, Notes, and fix the fifth record of the Result field from "i'th item of s, origin 0" to "i-th item of s, origin 0". So change only that apostrophe into a hyphen, so "i'th" to "i-th".

Would you care to explain why that change needs to be made?

I guess you're reffering to the "i'th" --> "i-th" thing. I found numerous occasions on the Internet that say like "n-th element blah blah blah", not "n'th element..." So I guess writting this thing as "i-th" would be correct here, too.

"numerous occasions" is not good enough. Why not let a native speaker decide?

Well, actually, it's the only correct way to write it (i-th). This is a simple orthographical error that was made. Ezio, please fix those two additional typos. And Georg, stop being such a wise-ass.

Once you start contributing anything useful, I will start treating it as such.

I am closing this issue report and opening another issue report with the two new doc typos that were not reported here before the commit of Ezio Melotti.
