Doctest fails in stdtypes.rst

When some codes are modified, the doc and doctests are not updated synchronously.

Failed doctests in stdtypes.rst:

Memory Views (3 failed)
Dictionary view objects (2 failed)
Generic Alias Type (1 failed)
Union Type (1 failed)
Special Attributes (1 failed)
Integer string conversion length limitation (2 failed)

I get 15 failures on Windows; the additional 5 (3,4,5,6,8 in details) seem to be from long ints being 8 versus 4 bytes.

I don't know how CI is run to avoid failures; perhaps it skips some things by examining failure. But some 'expected's are incorrect and should be changed in any case.

Comments: (I assume that you got same non-matching expected on Ubuntu. I checked validity of replacement expecteds back to 3.11 to be sure we can backport.)

Address could be 0x..., but this would require option and comment. Maybe CI ignores 0x... differences; leave alone.
list(b'abc'): 97, not 89 is correct for ord('a'). Fix.
Rather sure int size issue, Linux vs Windows. Leave as CI run on Ubuntu.

The exception has been TypeError since at least 3.11. Fix.
see 3.
Set comparison fails only on order difference. Standard workaround is to convert set to list, as done in 2.
Perhaps CI does so. Leave alone as long as CI passes as answer is correct from reader viewpoint.
This is bizarre. First, set operators require 'other' to also be a set. Perhaps a set was used originally, then changed to a list to show that or-ing with 'juice' multiple times has the same effect as doing so once, without actually rerunning the code. Second, keys originally had 4 items, 2 were deleted, leaving 2. Perhaps keys | {'juice'} was originally before the deletions at which time the answer was correct. Change the test to >>> keys | {'juice'} and fix the answer.
Message has been 'not a generic class' since at least 3.11. Fix.
True is correct since at least 3.11. Fix.
int has 4 subclasses since at least. Fix.
'Got' same in 3.11. Already in PR.
""

I get the same result on Windows. Please let me know if further testing or other work is required, so as not to duplicate the work you are doing~

I finished testing, but will 'let' you revise the PR.

Some additions:

(1, 9) The doctest docs recommend a solution to check set and address. Maybe we could use this to improve docs.

Perhaps keys | {'juice'} was originally before the deletions at which time the answer was correct. Change the test to >>> keys | {'juice'} and fix the answer.

(10) The keys here is not a real set object, but a set-like object (dict_keys). The test cases for operators between set-like object and list are intentionally added. See gh-96408 for details. So we just need to fix answer :)

True is correct since at least 3.11. Fix.

(12) This result is correct until Python 3.10. But please consider the following examples:

# Example1: In python 3.10
>>> isinstance(1, int | list[int])
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: isinstance() argument 2 cannot contain a parameterized generic

    
# Example2: In python 3.13.0a0
>>> isinstance(1, int | list[int])  # short-circuit evaluation
True

# Example3: In python 3.13.0a0
>>> isinstance([1], int | list[int])
Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
TypeError: isinstance() argument 2 cannot be a parameterized generic

I guess the syntax of Python has changed. In example 2, the second operand is never evaluated (short-circuit). Only modifying the result to True does not match the description in docs. It might be better to add example 3 and update docs.
