| It is implemented as a classmethod, but the "equivalent" code doesn't need to be part of the class all. I'm not sure what should be done here (say @staticmethod? Leave the decorator off?). We should probably see what Raymond thinks. I lean toward the latter, that's the way it is in the python2 docs, and it doesn't seem to have caused any confusion. |

| The 2.7 doc says 'Roughly equivalent to' rather than 'Equivalent to'. The undecorated Python version of from_iterable actually works as an attribute of the Python version of chain: chain.from_iterable = from_iterable. I would just remove the decorator. The entire itertools doc exploits that fact that generator functions are analogous to classes, but it does not work to mix the two in the way that the 3.x chain entry does. |

| Perhaps it should be staticmethod, not classmethod. |

| It should be a classmethod. >>> import itertools >>> class C(itertools.chain): pass ... >>> type(C.from_iterable(['ab', 'cd'])) <class '__main__.C'> The patch LGTM. |

| My counter proposal #18752 is that chain.from_iterable become a deprecated alias for a new function, chain_iterable. With '@classmethod' removed, the current Python equivalent would work for chain_iterable. |
