Hello, I think there are awesome example code snippets in gzip documentation. No doubt, they helped me a lot.

The only problem is that they are not idiomatic. They look like C more than Python.

I suggest following patch

It looks like this is for Python 2. I agree with the change, but I suggest back-porting revisions 35c53e7e2280, a01992e219c0 and ae1528beae67 (Issue 21146) instead, to match the Python 3 documentation.
