Message 25403 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

Stay close to the definition in the tutorial's glossary:

""" new-style class Any class that inherits from object. This includes all built-in types like list and dict. Only new-style classes can use Python's newer, versatile features like slots, descriptors, properties, getattribute(), class methods, and static methods. """

Also, the 2.2 comment should be in standard form markup: \versionadded{}

"classes" ==> "class"

Overall, -0 on the update. Ideally, the tutorial should be kept free of the more advanced concepts like properties, static methods, descriptors, and whatnot.
