Here is a pure Python implementation of a subsequence test: https://code.activestate.com/recipes/577850-search-sequences-for-sub-sequence/ It appears to be reasonably popular on Activestate: it has about 7000 views, but a score of only 1. Take of that what you will. I interpret it as meaning it is of moderate but not great interest to people. ---------- nosy: +steven.daprano versions: -Python 2.7, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29511> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
