The docs for time.ctime() (quoted below) seem to have been copied from time.asctime(). They refer to a time tuple and localtime(), where they should refer to seconds and time(). Current docs:: ctime(seconds) -> string Convert a time in seconds since the Epoch to a string in local time. This is equivalent to asctime(localtime(seconds)). When the time tuple is not present, current time as returned by localtime() is used.

It's already fixed in 2.6, 2.7 and 3.0 I'm unsure of 2.5 status regarding documentation updates.
