Issue 9304: unreproducible example in the memoryview documentation (original) (raw)

Hi,

In the current documentation at http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#memoryview, the first example announces :

v = memoryview('abcefg') v[1] 'b' v[-1] 'g' v[1:4] <memory at 0x77ab28> str(v[1:4]) 'bce'

Trying to reproduce this example I got :

$ python Python 2.7 (r27:82500, Jul 13 2010, 17:48:51) [GCC 4.4.1] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

v = memoryview('abcefg') v[1] 'b' v[-1] 'g' v[1:4] <memory at 0xa2a510> str(v[1:4]) '<memory at 0xa2a5a8>'

The last line of the example in the documentation is not reproducible. Hope it's only a documentation issue.

Bye, Carl Chenet
