"This article explains the new features in Python 2.1. While there aren't as "
"many changes in 2.1 as there were in Python 2.0, there are still some "
"pleasant surprises in store. 2.1 is the first release to be steered through "
"the use of Python Enhancement Proposals, or PEPs, so most of the sizable "
"changes have accompanying PEPs that provide more complete documentation and "
"a design rationale for the change. This article doesn't attempt to document "
"the new features completely, but simply provides an overview of the new "
"features for Python programmers. Refer to the Python 2.1 documentation, or "

#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:38
msgid ""
"The largest change in Python 2.1 is to Python's scoping rules. In Python "
"2.0, at any given time there are at most three namespaces used to look up "
"variable names: local, module-level, and the built-in namespace. This often "
"surprised people because it didn't match their intuitive expectations. For "
"example, a nested recursive function definition doesn't work::"
msgstr ""
#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:44
msgid ""
"def f():\n"
" ...\n"
" def g(value):\n"
" ...\n"
" return g(value-1) + 1\n"
" ..."

"def f():\n"
" ...\n"
" def g(value):\n"
" ...\n"
" return g(value-1) + 1\n"
" ..."
#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:51
msgid ""
"The function :func:`!g` will always raise a :exc:`NameError` exception, "
"because the binding of the name ``g`` isn't in either its local namespace or "
"in the module-level namespace. This isn't much of a problem in practice "
"(how often do you recursively define interior functions like this?), but "
"this also made using the :keyword:`lambda` expression clumsier, and this was "
"a problem in practice. In code which uses :keyword:`lambda` you can often "
"find local variables being copied by passing them as the default values of "
"arguments. ::"
msgstr ""
#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:59

"def find(self, name):\n"

"The readability of Python code written in a strongly functional style "
"suffers greatly as a result."
msgstr ""
#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:68
msgid ""
"The most significant change to Python 2.1 is that static scoping has been "
"added to the language to fix this problem. As a first effect, the "
"``name=name`` default argument is now unnecessary in the above example. Put "
"simply, when a given variable name is not assigned a value within a function "
"(by an assignment, or the :keyword:`def`, :keyword:`class`, or :keyword:"
"`import` statements), references to the variable will be looked up in the "
"local namespace of the enclosing scope. A more detailed explanation of the "
"rules, and a dissection of the implementation, can be found in the PEP."
msgstr ""
#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:77
msgid ""
"This change may cause some compatibility problems for code where the same "
"variable name is used both at the module level and as a local variable "
"within a function that contains further function definitions. This seems "
"rather unlikely though, since such code would have been pretty confusing to "
"read in the first place."
msgstr ""
#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:83
msgid ""
"One side effect of the change is that the ``from module import *`` and "
"``exec`` statements have been made illegal inside a function scope under "
"certain conditions. The Python reference manual has said all along that "
"``from module import *`` is only legal at the top level of a module, but the "
"CPython interpreter has never enforced this before. As part of the "
"implementation of nested scopes, the compiler which turns Python source into "
"bytecodes has to generate different code to access variables in a containing "
"scope. ``from module import *`` and ``exec`` make it impossible for the "
"compiler to figure this out, because they add names to the local namespace "
"that are unknowable at compile time. Therefore, if a function contains "
"function definitions or :keyword:`lambda` expressions with free variables, "
"the compiler will flag this by raising a :exc:`SyntaxError` exception."

#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:98
msgid ""

" # The next line is a syntax error\n"
" exec 'x=2'\n"
" def g():\n"
" return x"
msgstr ""
#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:105
msgid ""
"Line 4 containing the ``exec`` statement is a syntax error, since ``exec`` "
"would define a new local variable named ``x`` whose value should be accessed "
"by :func:`!g`."
msgstr ""
#: ../../whatsnew/2.1.rst:109
msgid ""
"This shouldn't be much of a limitation, since ``exec`` is rarely used in "
"most Python code (and when it is used, it's often a sign of a poor design "
"anyway)."

"Ka-Ping Yee contributed two new modules: :mod:`!inspect.py`, a module for "
"getting information about live Python code, and :mod:`!pydoc.py`, a module "
"for interactively converting docstrings to HTML or text. As a bonus, :file:"
"`Tools/scripts/pydoc`, which is now automatically installed, uses :mod:`!"
"pydoc.py` to display documentation given a Python module, package, or class "

"Two different modules for unit testing were added to the standard library. "
"The :mod:`doctest` module, contributed by Tim Peters, provides a testing "
"framework based on running embedded examples in docstrings and comparing the "
"results against the expected output. PyUnit, contributed by Steve Purcell, "
"is a unit testing framework inspired by JUnit, which was in turn an "
"adaptation of Kent Beck's Smalltalk testing framework. See https://pyunit."
"sourceforge.net/ for more information about PyUnit."

"The :mod:`difflib` module contains a class, :class:`~difflib."
"SequenceMatcher`, which compares two sequences and computes the changes "
"required to transform one sequence into the other. For example, this module "
"can be used to write a tool similar to the Unix :program:`diff` program, and "
"in fact the sample program :file:`Tools/scripts/ndiff.py` demonstrates how "
"to write such a script."

":mod:`curses.panel`, a wrapper for the panel library, part of ncurses and of "
"SYSV curses, was contributed by Thomas Gellekum. The panel library provides "
"windows with the additional feature of depth. Windows can be moved higher or "
"lower in the depth ordering, and the panel library figures out where panels "
"overlap and which sections are visible."

"The PyXML package has gone through a few releases since Python 2.0, and "
"Python 2.1 includes an updated version of the :mod:`xml` package. Some of "
"the noteworthy changes include support for Expat 1.2 and later versions, the "
"ability for Expat parsers to handle files in any encoding supported by "
"Python, and various bugfixes for SAX, DOM, and the :mod:`!minidom` module."

"Ping also contributed another hook for handling uncaught exceptions. :func:"
"`sys.excepthook` can be set to a callable object. When an exception isn't "
"caught by any :keyword:`try`...\\ :keyword:`except` blocks, the exception "
"will be passed to :func:`sys.excepthook`, which can then do whatever it "
"likes. At the Ninth Python Conference, Ping demonstrated an application for "
"this hook: printing an extended traceback that not only lists the stack "
"frames, but also lists the function arguments and the local variables for "
"each frame."

"Various functions in the :mod:`time` module, such as :func:`~time.asctime` "
"and :func:`~time.localtime`, require a floating-point argument containing "
"the time in seconds since the epoch. The most common use of these functions "
"is to work with the current time, so the floating-point argument has been "
"made optional; when a value isn't provided, the current time will be used. "
"For example, log file entries usually need a string containing the current "
"time; in Python 2.1, ``time.asctime()`` can be used, instead of the "
"lengthier ``time.asctime(time.localtime(time.time()))`` that was previously "
"required."

"The :mod:`ftplib` module now defaults to retrieving files in passive mode, "
"because passive mode is more likely to work from behind a firewall. This "
"request came from the Debian bug tracking system, since other Debian "
"packages use :mod:`ftplib` to retrieve files and then don't work from behind "
"a firewall. It's deemed unlikely that this will cause problems for anyone, "
"because Netscape defaults to passive mode and few people complain, but if "
"passive mode is unsuitable for your application or network setup, call "
"``set_pasv(0)`` on FTP objects to disable passive mode."
