abstract instead of NotImplementedError #27
Description
Many methods use "abstract" instead of raising NotImplementError when they are
destined to be implemented by a child class.
Fun fact, upon research. I end up in
http://norvig.com/python-iaq.html
finding an explanation for this.
Still, I think that, to avoid confusion, it should be fixed to either
abstract() as in the FAQ or just RaiseNotImplementedError.
Otherwise, it will raise NameError which is confusing (and abstract could
potentially be defined globally)
