Esri's documentation errors

Rasters

Version 10.2 rasters says Raster.path is the "full path and filename". It's just the path. You need to do os.path.join(raster.path, raster.name) to get actually get the full path.

Toolboxes

[Version Pro and earlier toolboxes] (https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/arcpy/classes/parameter.htm) claimed that you set the parameter dependendencies with a list of integers. This is incorrect. You need to use either a list of integers as strings or the parameter names.
