3 other internet doctests failing in findstat.py

[slabbe]

As reported in ​sage-release for 8.4.beta6, the command

sage -tp --long --optional=sage,optional,external src/sage/databases/findstat.py

gives

sage -t --long src/sage/databases/findstat.py

The first one seems to indicate that the meaning of "..." has changed: it fails because the next line is interpreted as part of the doctest instead of part of the output.

The other failures are a consequence of the first.

fix doctests, remove a few "random" tags

[chapoton]

We should rather keep the #random, so that we do not have to change the doctests every week or so.

[slabbe]

I suggest we update doctests and/or readd # random tag later in another ticket if needed. Positive review.

[slabbe]

oups, the plugins "doctest continuation" seems unhappy. And sometimes pyflakes too.

[chapoton]

pyflakes (when run using python3) warns about an exception class called StandardError? that has been removed in Python 3

[mantepse]

Replying to slabbe:

oups, the plugins "doctest continuation" seems unhappy. And sometimes pyflakes too.

I do not understand this. It is complaining about the doctest which I just changed:

    sage: r = findstat(Permutations, lambda pi: pi.saliances()[0]); r           # optional -- internet
    0: ...
    ... (St000051: The size of the left subtree of a binary tree., [Mp00069: complement, Mp00061: to increasing tree], 1000)
    ...
    sage: (s, list_f, quality) = next((a,b,c) for a,b,c in r if a.id() == 51)   # optional -- internet

I can't see what's wrong with it - any ideas?

Concerning StandardError, it seems that this should be replaced with Exception.

[chapoton]

The plugin is not smart. If you think it's ok, just go on.

[mantepse]

Can I use or look at the plugin without setting up a patchbot?

[chapoton]

The code is here: ​https://github.com/sagemath/sage-patchbot

Patchbot is not so easy to use. Some instructions for usage inside an ipython session are here at the bottom: ​https://wiki.sagemath.org/patchbot

[git]

Branch pushed to git repo; I updated commit sha1. New commits:

​d35a6e3

StandardError -> Exception, no ... at beginning of line followed by whitespace

[chapoton]

ok, even if I would have prefered to keep "# random"

[embray]

This should be re-targeted for 8.5.
