reference/expressions.html#notin reads:
"Mappings (dictionaries) compare equal if and only if their sorted (key, value) lists compare equal. [4] Outcomes other than equality are resolved consistently, but are not otherwise defined. [5]"
However, the last sentence is no longer true. I suggest changing the last sentence to:
"Comparisons other than equality testing raise a TypeError."
I think the footnote [5] is sufficiently historical that it could be removed as well. Alternately, it could be updated to read, "In older versions of Python, outcomes other than equality were resolved consistently but were not otherwise defined." |
