In this test, “keyword arguments” is definitely wrong:
>>> f(**{1:2})
-TypeError: f() keywords must be strings
+TypeError: f() keyword arguments must be strings
To me, a keyword argument is a _value_ passed in using the f(name=. . .) syntax, and the keyword is the name that identifies it (usually becomes a parameter name in the function implementation). So I think the original was better. But if you think the original can be confusing, “keyword names” would also work.
The other messages look okay to me. |
