Terry J. Reedy <[email protected]> added the comment: Is str = str.replace('xxxxxxxx', 'x') str = str.replace('xxxx', 'x') str = str.replace('xx', 'x') str = str.replace('xx', 'x') really faster than _squashex = re.compile('x+').sub # top of file _squashex('x', str)
And are the name bindings faster that regex.func(...)? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <[email protected]> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32880> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
