Hi Python Group, I am not sure if I am doing this correctly however, I believe I found a bug that involves the striping of a text string.
I have attached a JPG that clearly illustrate the issue. I am currently using 2.7.13 In short: Given a string. 'cm_text.data' if you try and strip '.data' the return string will be 'cm_tex' which drops the last 't' however, given other text. 'om_ol.data' the same strip '.data' will return 'om_ol' which is correct! As for a work around right now I am doing the following. string_abc = 'some_text.data' string_next = string_abc.strip('data') string_final = string_next.strip('.') Please see the JPG. Sorry if this has been filed before, if I have filed this incorrectly could you please provide me a better avenue for future reference.
