The index (https://docs.python.org/3.6/genindex-Symbols.html) is missing an entry for the tilde operator ~ (there is also no entry under "tilde"). A relevant pointer could be to object.__invert__ (https://docs.python.org/3.6/reference/datamodel.html#object.__invert__).

Thanks Eric. I think the reference should be added here, as we do for the other operators: https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bitwise-operations-on-integer-types

Good reference. Another one would be https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html#unary-arithmetic-and-bitwise-operations, which explicitly indicates that it only makes sense for integer types (which is useful to keep in mind, as one may think that it could somehow apply to floating point numbers as well). The one at https://docs.python.org/3.6/reference/datamodel.html#object.__invert__ is also important for learning that it is related to __invert__().

Looking at Doc/reference/expressions.rst and Doc/reference/datamodel.rst, I do not see any reference to the symbols, but only to the operator name (negation, minus, plus, inversion, etc.). Therefore I think it is better to not change these files. In the PR [*] I added (in Doc/library/stdtypes.rst) both a reference to the symbol and to the name. Thank you very much [*] https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/1502/
