hey @tuttle I would like to work on it. In which file I have to make changes?
Thanks! Anyway, I don't know, I'm sorry. :-)
Just reporting what I found out.
In my opinion, first you need to decide whether to modify either the search indexer or the source documentation.See also #114336

Searching for
updateshows these results:https://docs.python.org/3.13/search.html?q=update
The search result list includes
frozenset.update, which is false:frozensetdoes not have such method.I guess this is due to the fact that on the target page https://docs.python.org/3.13/library/stdtypes.html#frozenset.update,
setandfrozensetare explained together, but the search indexer doesn't catch it.#frozenset.updateis even the working page anchor, while#set.updateis not. More confusion.Further, I'm guessing that this will be happening with more class groups documented together.
