bpo-29695 removed "bad keyword parameters in int(), bool(), float(), list() and tuple()", but int docstring (at least) is now outdated: haypo@selma$ ./python Python 3.7.0a0 (master:8f6b344d368c15c3fe56c65c2f2776e7766fef55, Mar 7 >>> help(int) class int(object) | int(x=0) -> integer	int(x, base=10) -> integer ... >>> int(x=0) TypeError: 'x' is an invalid keyword argument for this function

int docstring is the only one that needs to be changed. docstrings for float,tuple and list look fine to me.

int() can be called without argument.

True, but the docstring says "return 0 if no arguments are given". So please let me know, if you want me to still change it i.e. add int() or keep it as it is. Thanks.

After converting int.__new__() to Argument Clinic this issue will become outdated.
