Python3 doc, operator reflection

Show all headers | View raw

Hi group,

in http://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#customization the
doc reads:

> There are no swapped-argument versions of these methods (to be used when the left argument does not support the operation but the right argument does); rather, __lt__() and __gt__() are each other’s reflection, __le__() and __ge__() are each other’s reflection, and __eq__() and __ne__() are their own reflection.

But shouldn't __lt__ be the reflection or __ge__ and __gt__ the
reflection of __le__?

Best regards,
Johannes
