If the white spaces and the '_' should be applied equivalently on the
input and you can enumerate all white space characters, you could do
like this:
def split_helper(list, delims):
if not delims:
return list
ch = delims[0]
lst = []
for item in list:
lst += split_helper(item.split(ch), delims[1:])
return lst
def split(str, delims):
return split_helper([str], delims)
>>> split("foo_bar eh", "_ ")
['foo', 'bar', 'eh']
Though I bet someone will post a one-line solution in the next 30 minutes. :)
