All, I was showing a co-worker some python today (using the trunk) when I stumbled upon this. I was not sure what to think since I have never really experimented with using spaces like this. So here tis. Be careful to notice the spaces as they are significant here.
>>> 1.3.__str__() '1.3' >>> 1.3 .__str__() '1.3' >>> a = " somestring " >>> a .split() ['somestring'] >>> a. split() ['somestring'] Cool I suppose, except here's an odd man out: >>> 1.__str__() File "<stdin>", line 1 1.__str__() ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax >>> 1 .__str__() '1' Joseph Armbruster
