	Signed-off-by: Anson Mansfield <amansfield@mantaro.com>
2024-03-07	all: Prune trailing whitespace.	Phil Howard
	Prune trailing whitespace across the whole project (almost), done automatically with: grep -IUrl --color "[[:blank:]]$" --exclude-dir=.git --exclude=.exp \|\ xargs sed -i 's/[[:space:]]$//' Exceptions: - Skip third-party code in lib/ and drivers/cc3100/ - Skip generated code in bluetooth_init_cc2564C_1.5.c - Preserve command output whitespace in docs, eg: docs/esp8266/tutorial/repl.rst Signed-off-by: Phil Howard <phil@gadgetoid.com>
2024-01-25	docs: Add note about position-only arguments in CPython vs MicroPython.	Angus Gratton
	Required modifying the gen-cpydiff.py code to allow a "preamble" section to be inserted at the top of any of the generated files. This work was funded through GitHub Sponsors. Signed-off-by: Angus Gratton <angus@redyak.com.au>
2022-12-13	docs/differences: Add Python 3.10 page.	David Lechner
	This adds a new page for Python 3.10 implementation status similar to previous releases. Signed-off-by: David Lechner <david@pybricks.com>
2022-12-13	docs/differences: Update Python 3.9 status.	David Lechner
	This marks PEP 584 as complete and notes a few PEPs as not relevant. Signed-off-by: David Lechner <david@pybricks.com>
2022-08-26	docs: Update CPython differences and improve the look of table layouts.	Matt Trentini
	Updated some of the CPython feature differences: - Updated status of some features. - Added CSS to fix table widths to 100% and word wrap. - Specified explicit table column ratios to improve layout appearance. - Added missing references to anchors. - Better consistency with use of formatting and case.
2022-04-11	docs/differences: Update Python 3.5 diff, with optional listen backlog.	Damien George
	Signed-off-by: Damien George <damien@micropython.org>
2022-03-31	py/runtime: Allow multiple *args in a function call.	David Lechner
	This is a partial implementation of PEP 448 to allow unpacking multiple star args in a function or method call. This is implemented by changing the emitted bytecodes so that both positional args and star args are stored as positional args. A bitmap is added to indicate if an argument at a given position is a positional argument or a star arg. In the generated code, this new bitmap takes the place of the old star arg. It is stored as a small int, so this means only the first N arguments can be star args where N is the number of bits in a small int. The runtime is modified to interpret this new bytecode format while still trying to perform as few memory reallocations as possible. Signed-off-by: David Lechner <david@pybricks.com>
2022-03-07	docs/differences/python_35: Mark PEP 486 as not applicable.	David Lechner
	This adds the "Not relevant" designation to PEP 486 since it has to do with the Python Launcher for Windows and not the Python language itself. Also fix a typo while we are touching this line. Signed-off-by: David Lechner <david@pybricks.com>
2022-01-23	docs/differences: Update python_36 now that b2a_base64 accepts newline.	Damien George
	Signed-off-by: Damien George <damien@micropython.org>
2022-01-23	docs/differences: Update differences now that math.tau/inf/nan exist.	Damien George
	Signed-off-by: Damien George <damien@micropython.org>
2022-01-05	docs/differences: Document details of new PEPs/features in Python 3.5+.	NitiKaur
	And how they relate to MicroPython. As these features are implemented (or the decision is made to not implement them) the tables can be updated to document the differences between MicroPython and standard Python.
2019-01-11	docs/differences: Clarify the differences are against Python 3.4.	stijn

2017-07-01	reference/index: Rewrite introduction paragraph to avoid confusion.	Paul Sokolovsky
	The old intro talked about "differences", but there were hardly any sections describing differences, mostly MicroPython specific features. On the other hand, we now have real "differences" chapter, though it's mostly concerned with stdlib differences. So, try to avoid confusion by changing wording and linking to the other chapters and contrasting them with what is described in "MicroPython language".
2017-07-01	docs/differences/index_template: Use consistent heading casing.	Paul Sokolovsky
	And in our case, "consistent" is where each word in the heading is not capitalized.
2017-02-20	tools: Add gen-cpydiff.py to generate docs differences.	Rami Ali
	This patch introduces the a small framework to track differences between uPy and CPython. The framework consists of: - A set of "tests" which test for an individual feature that differs between uPy and CPy. Each test is like a normal uPy test in the test suite, but has a special comment at the start with some meta-data: a category (eg syntax, core language), a human-readable description of the difference, a cause, and a workaround. Following the meta-data there is a short code snippet which demonstrates the difference. See tests/cpydiff directory for the initial set of tests. - A program (this patch) which runs all the tests (on uPy and CPy) and generates nicely-formated .rst documenting the differences. - Integration into the docs build so that everything is automatic, and the differences appear in a way that is easy for users to read/reference (see latter commits). The idea with using this new framework is: - When a new difference is found it's easy to write a short test for it, along with a description, and add it to the existing ones. It's also easy for contributors to submit tests for differences they find. - When something is no longer different the tool will give an error and difference can be removed (or promoted to a proper feature test).
