match point

hat anchor makes a pattern match in only a single position, and is therefore useless in functions like re.findall, re.finditer or re.split? Thanks, Thierry -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: match point

te exactly this, so it makes sense to add an easy-to-use fullmatch function to the re namespace. It may not be the real historical reason behind re.fullmatch, but personally I will stick with that one :) Cheers, Thierry -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Evaluation order

Hi, No, the value of t is a reference to tje list. So first, (1) the value of the reference t is recovered, (2) the parenthesis is evaluated, (...) the whole expression is evaluated. To evaluate (2), the .sort() call is executed in place with the side effect of sorting the content of t. t.sort()

Are you sure that Python wasn't just printing out \n because you'd asked it to show you the repr() of a string containing newlines? Yes, I am sure. Because I dumped the ord() values to check them. But again, I'm stumped on how complicated I have made this. I should not try to code anymore at
