Why Python docs search is so bad?
http://www.google.com/search?q=python+datetime
http://docs.python.org/search.html?q=datetime
- bmelton 15y agoI'm not sure I know if there's a problem. The datetime result does show in the both queries, though admittedly it's #1 in Google and number 15 or 20 or so in the Python search, but it's there. On the flip side to that, I don't think I've ever searched for anything on Python.org, so maybe I'm missing the problem, but Googling has always gotten me to the right spot. Ignoring that, I still hearken back to the old PHP docs, where every function or method had its own page, at its own user-friendly URL, and everything was predictably where it was expected to be.
