>>> None.__bool__.__doc__ 'self != 0' This isn't true, since None does not equal 0. I suggest rewording it to "True if self else False". |

There is no object.__bool__. None.__bool__.__doc__ appears to be an accidental copy of bool/int/float/complex.__bool__.__doc__. It should just be 'False'. |

For whatever reason, all builtins with a __bool__ method appear to share the same docstring. For example, >>> range.__bool__.__doc__ 'self != 0' >>> bool(range(0)) False >>> bool(range(1)) True The concrete collection classes have their lengths stored internally so bool use that via len(self). But len(range) != 0 iff stop != start. |
