The string method isalpha() returns True when all characters in the
string are alphabetic. Unfortunately the underscore is not alphabetic.
A function that does what I need is:
def alfa_(w):
return "".join(w.split("_")).isalpha()
but for the kind of strings that I have this is about ten times
slower than isalpha() sec. Any suggestions ?
Thanks.
