New submission from Sworddragon: >From the documentation: "The '*', '+', and '?' qualifiers are all greedy;"
But this is not the case for '?'. In the attachments is an example which shows this: re.search(r'1?', '01') should find '1' but it doesn't find anything. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: test.py messages: 205962 nosy: Sworddragon priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: '?' is always non-greedy type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file33104/test.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19964> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
