Summary
Fixes an inconsistency in the documentation for
eval()where the parameterwas referred to as “expression” instead of “source”, which does not match
the function signature.
Rationale
The function signature and parameter description already use
source.Updating the prose ensures consistency and avoids confusion for readers.
Changes
Doc/library/functions.rstto consistently refer to thesourceparameter in the
eval()documentation.Testing
Not applicable — documentation-only change.
