We'll need a news file for this. It's minor, but it touches a builtin. |

I was looking to implement a "custom object" to represent intervals of numbers
e.g.
if x in interval(2,4)will beTrue if (x >= 2) and (x < 4).I looked up
help(list.__contains__)and it says "Return key in self" which I interpreted as returning the actual key, not a boolean. A moment of confusion ensured and I tested[2,3].__contains__(2)to check that return value of__contains__is indeed boolean.The docstring change suggestion makes the return type of
__contains__clearer.A type hint for old school people who
?methods in jupyter notebooks ;)
