Matthew Barnett added the comment: Like the OP, I would've expected it to handle negative indexes the way that strings do.
In practice, I wouldn't normally provide negative indexes; I'd use some string or regex method to determine the search limits, and then pass them to finditer and findall, so they'd be non-negative anyway. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7940> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
