DOC: Docstring for comparison operators has "=!" instead of "!="

[daytonb]

Location of the documentation

Shows up in all the flexible comparison docstrings like "https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/dev/reference/api/pandas.DataFrame.ne.html". The typo is in the _flex_comp_doc_FRAME shared docstring found in core/ops/docstrings.py.

Documentation problem

The docstring says =! instead of != for the not-equals comparison.

Suggested fix for documentation

Just need to change it to !=.

From a comment on the PR #36077 (comment):

So this change actually breaks building docs, at least using sphinx. Leads to an error

/usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/docutils/nodes.py", line 567, in __getitem__
    return self.attributes[key]
KeyError: 'reftarget'

whereas simply swapping them back fixes the problem. Any idea what might be going on here?

I haven't yet looked into it, just reopening so it's not forgotten

@MarcoGorelli is there anything left to do here?

[daytonb]

@jbrockmendel and @MarcoGorelli, I don't believe there is anything left to do here. I was pretty certain that my tiny docstring correction could not have broken building the docs and my commit has been part of the main line for quite a while now including several pandas releases. This tells me that whatever was actually causing the doc build failures has also been addressed by some other work.

Agreed, thanks for closing, looks like I just forgot to get back to this, sorry 😞
