Timothy Pederick <peder...@gmail.com> added the comment: Brett: Well, I was more thinking along the lines of making join() recognise when it's been passed a bytes object, rather than changing the semantics of indexing bytes. That would be a bit overdramatic!
But if it's wontfix, it's wontfix. Antoine: Yes, the str example was just for comparison, since the behaviour of bytes is generally supposed to be the same as str. (But I'm sure I could think of some silly examples where it could be used.) The bytes problem actually came up in code I was writing... though I later ripped it out and did it differently... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8662> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
