So here is a though. How would you guys go about to sort versioning that has no padding? For instance Nuke always adds v1,v2,v3 etc without padding. And some users are used to do that when versioning their files. I try and trap most of those things to add padding. But... there is always that case when you can't.
v = ["test_v1.ma", "test_v2.ma","test_v11.ma","test_v8.ma","test_v10.ma"] how would you sort and print the last version? In a clever way. Right now there is a lot of splitting and sorting for me to get it right. But it feels there would be a "smart" way with regex, but I can't get my head around how to use that. regards stefan On Wed, May 7, 2014 at 6:42 AM, Marcus Ottosson <[email protected]>wrote: > Just reading up on Pyparsing so I could be off here, but I would actually > argue that if a codebase relies heavily enough on strings (for > identification?) that regex no longer cuts it, I would consider whether or > not there is a better way of doing it, and not necessarily turn to heavier > guns in parsing. > > Again, I could very well be misunderstanding.
