Descrição

Cell variable

Since "free variable" is defined in 4.2.1. Binding of names, I suggest also defining a "cell variable", as any local variable whose name is resolved to that scope in some enclosed scope.
Also, the term "free variable" is used elsewhere in the docs, where it means that the variable is resolved in an enclosing function scope, and does not include if the variable is resolved in the module scope.

exec(..., closure=...)

The closure argument specifies a closure–a tuple of cellvars. It’s only valid when the object is a code object containing free variables. The length of the tuple must exactly match the number of free variables referenced by the code object.

  1. Use the name 'func' to refer to the function involved. func.__code__ is the object given to exec().
  2. Instead of 'cellvars', say 'bindings for free variables in 'func'.' Refer to new 'Cell objects' section of the Type Hierarchy.
  3. The bindings are in the same order as the names of the free variables found in code.co_freevars.
  4. The bindings can be found in func.__closure.
  5. func.__closure__ reflects values of the free variables at the time exec is called, which may have changed since func was created.
  6. Bindings in closure can be modified by the code if the variable names are declared nonlocal in func. If 'closure' is func.__closure__, then the 'func' free variables will have changed.
  7. Refer to new 'Cell Objects' section in the Type Hierarchy for details.

Type Hierarchy

Add a section for 'Cell Objects' under 'Internal types'.

  • The name of the class is 'cell', and the class is available in types.CellType.
  • It represents the binding of a free or cell variable.
  • It may have a current value (any Python object), or it may be empty.
  • cell() is an empty cell. cell(obj) is a cell with obj as its current value.
  • cell.cell_contents is a writable attribute returning the current value, if any, or raising ValueError if empty. It may be assigned a new value or deleted (without raising an exception if already empty).
  • Cells may be compared by their values. Empty cells compare < non-empty cells.

Mention that Frame objects have class 'frame', which is types.FrameType. There is no explicit constructor.

User-defined functions section:

  • Add an id=user-defined-functions tag to the HTML so that it can be linked to as a fragment.
  • Under closure, refer to the new 'Cell objects' section, instead of the later paragraph about cells.

inspect.getmembers

Add entry for 'closure' under 'function'. Use same text as above in the user-defined functions section.

Entry for 'co_cellvars' under 'code', should read 'contained scopes' instead of 'containing scopes'. And it is only for names in 'co_varnames'.

Direção de pesquisa

Comece pelas seções vinculadas da documentação sobre exec(closure=...), Type Hierarchy, funções definidas pelo usuário e inspect.getmembers. Verifique as definições existentes de variáveis livres, variáveis de célula, closures e frames antes de atualizar a terminologia e as referências cruzadas solicitadas; o trabalho estará concluído quando as seções afetadas descreverem de forma consistente o comportamento solicitado de células e closures.
