| https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel#object.__iter__ > This method should return a new iterator object that can iterate over all the objects > in the container. For mappings, it should iterate over the keys of the container, and > should also be made available as the method keys(). In 3.x, d.__iter__() is not equivalent to d.keys() but to iter(d.keys()). |

| They aren't equivalent in python2, either. I think probably the wording should be changed to something like "and the method keys() should return an iterable that provides access to the same data". |

| The Python 2 doc is alright, the same line says that d.__iter__() is equivalent to d.iterkeys(). |

| Ah, I see. So the python3 docs should say "and should be equivalent to iter(dict.keys())" ? Or maybe the whole phrase should just be dropped. |

| I think the first half of the sentence is enough: “For mappings, it should iterate over the keys of the container.” |

| Since .iterkeys is gone, I thing the ', and' part should just be dropped. |
