Documentation (UPDATE: Added multiple suspected errors in code snippets in the documentation and another typo to this initial report in #156233 (comment) as I was OK'd to open a PR but encouraged to expand the scope before sending a fix.) Hello Python team, this is just a typo so I know an issue is not required, but I hope you won't mind if I open one in case someone else wants to include it in a larger typo cleanup PR they are already doing (if no one picks it up after some time and I don't find other typos, I can send a PR). In the latest version of https://docs.python.org/3/howto/mro.html#python-2-3-mro (archived as is at https://web.archive.org/web/20260822145356/https://docs.python.org/3/howto/mro.html#python-2-3-mro ) In the sentence Then repeat the operation until all the class are removed or it is impossible to find good heads. it seems "all the class" should be "all the classes".

Documentation PyUnicode_DecodeCharmap has a mapping argument that either takes a mapping or a str: cpython/Objects/unicodeobject.c Lines 8826 to 8833 in e8158d1 if (PyUnicode_CheckExact(mapping)) { if (charmap_decode_string(s, size, mapping, errors, &writer) < 0) goto onError; } else { if (charmap_decode_mapping(s, size, mapping, errors, &writer) < 0) goto onError; } That it takes a str is not documented: https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/unicode.html#character-map-codecs Linked PRs gh-156147

Documentation The Platforms/ re-organization (gh-146445) moved the Android and Apple build trees to Platforms/Android and Platforms/Apple, and the devguide was updated — but several Doc/ pages still reference the old locations, so their :source: links render as broken GitHub URLs on docs.python.org today: Doc/using/android.rst — five :source: references to Android/... (testbed, README, build.gradle.kts, MainActivity.kt, main_activity.c) Doc/using/ios.rst — Apple/iOS/README.md (×2), the testbed reference (Apple/iOS/testbed; the shared testbed now lives at Platforms/Apple/testbed), and a shell example invoking python Apple/testbed Doc/using/configure.rst — :source:`iOS/README.rst` (moved twice, and the file is Markdown) Unrelated to the move, a few more references point at files that no longer exist: Doc/extending/extending.rst — Objects/pycapsule.c (the implementation is Objects/capsule.c) Doc/library/sys.rst — Objects/lnotab_notes.txt (removed in gh-134690; the locatio

Documentation This part of the documentation is inaccurate: A platform-specific location: On Windows, the directories C:\TEMP, C:\TMP, \TEMP, and \TMP, in that order As you can see from the implementation, %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp and %SYSTEMROOT%\Temp are checked before the rest of the already documented directories: cpython/Lib/tempfile.py Lines 169 to 174 in 3ece6b5 if _os.name == 'nt': dirlist.extend([ _os.path.expanduser(r'~\AppData\Local\Temp'), _os.path.expandvars(r'%SYSTEMROOT%\Temp'), r'c:\temp', r'c:\tmp', r'\temp', r'\tmp' ]) else: dirlist.extend([ '/tmp', '/var/tmp', '/usr/tmp' ]) This has bee
