I am trying to work with properties, using python 2.4.2. I can't get the
docstrings to work, can someone suggest what I'm doing wrong? I think the
following script should print "This is the doc string.", but instead it
prints:
"float(x) -> floating point number
Convert a string or number to a floating point number, if possible."
Thanks,
Darren
