Hi folks,
I'd like to gather some feedback on a feature suggestion to extend
str.partition and bytes.partition to support multiple arguments. Please find
the feature described below.
# Feature or enhancement
The str.partition[1] method -- and similarly the bytes.partition[2] method --
is useful w
You can get almost the same result using pattern matching. For example, your
"foo:bar;baz".partition(":", ";")
can be done by a well-known matching idiom:
re.match(r'([^:]*):([^;]*);(.*)', 'foo:bar;baz').groups()

deterministic length (currently 3) and potentially retai
+1 on the idea of having `partition` and `rpartition` take multiple
separators.
Keep it nice and simple: provided with multiple separators, `partition`
will split the string on the first separator found in the source string.
In other words, `source.partition(a, b, c, d)` will split on a /or/ b

"Well-known"
