By the way, this is a great example of what Diataxis calls an Explanation.
While you're at it, some existing ref targets are broken that you might want to fix, which look to be due to being annotated as methods, but the class (e.g. object
or list
) is not included. If you change them from e.g. :meth:`__init__`
to :meth:`~object.__init__`
they should display the same, but resolve correctly.

There's no double
type defined in Python's documentation (since its defined in the C standard) or auto-linked/formatted by Sphinx and this apparently isn't given any special formatting by the current Python docs theme. Maybe this should be rolled back, or we should fix the theme to format C-domain types correctly? Or perhaps this has something to do with enabling the legacy C domain syntax mode in conf.py
that @AA-Turner 's been working on getting rid of the need for?

If I recall, I believe that regular literals (double backticks) are how you've handled this sort of thing elsewhere.

Doing a quick search through the repo I'm seeing more (23 vs 5) in the form of :c:type:`double`
, so keeping it would be more in line with what's currently being done.

Okay, I see. Still, it is strange that it is formatted as prose rather than as a literal, as we'd (and I assume the original authors) would expect—perhaps something changed in the theme, Sphinx or the configuration that resulted in that not happening as expected.

Two minor nits, otherwise LGTM.

Hey @ezio-melotti is there a reason this one wasn't backported (but the other ones were?) |
