I started a first translation of my document originally in french. Could
some fluent english people read it and indicate errors or bad english
expressions.
Just one note up front: Languages or nationalities are written with
uppercase letters, like English and French. Other common faults of that
category are days of the week (Monday..) and month names (January..),
although that's irrelevant for your doc.
Another thing I noticed that was missing was that the "in" keyword can
not only be used to iterate over a sequence (for i in seq:...) but also
to test if something is contained in a sequence (if i in seq:...).
"don't miss to close file after use": Use a "with" statement.
"see verso for string formatting..." - what is "verso"?
"dont" -> "don't"
"char strings" -> "strings" (in the context of indexing, byte strings
have the same syntax)
"with several else if, else if..." - there is no "else if" but "elif".
"block else for other cases" - this sounds as if it was blocking the
else. Maybe "else-block for other cases", but English hyphenation is
complicated and I'm not sure.
Thanks for your work!
Uli
