Perhaps this is a silly suggestion, but could we offer this as an external function in the stdlib rather than a string method?
Leave it up to the user to decide whether or not their data best suits the find method or the new search function. It sounds like we can offer some rough heuristics, but the only way to really know is "try it and see which works best for you". The `string` module is an obvious place for it. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/SVMEBOHDPPODZQGDOGSUPZYT4B7UIIAW/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
