Hi. I am splitting a string on a non whitespace character. One or more whitespace characters can be returned as items in the list. I do not want the items in the list that are only whitespace (can be one or more characters of whitespace) and plan to use string.strip on those items that are not only whitespace (to remove any whitespace from front or back of items).
What kind of efficient test can I use to obtain only list items returned from the split that I am interested in, ignoring any list items that would only be comprised of one or more characters of whitespace (since whitespace can mean one or more spaces, tabs, and other characters) As a second question, I am seeing string split as deprecated in 2.4.2 manual. What is planned in future to split (strings or unicode)? Regards, David -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
