----- Original message ----- From: h2m2 <h...@mailworks.org> To: python-list@python.org Subject: bugreport os.path.dirname and os.path.basename Date: Wed, 05 Oct 2016 16:49:17 +0200 bug: os.path.dirname('G:\Programmierung\Python\Portugal Training\Python-for-Algorithms--Data-Structures--and--Life\Algorithm Analysis and Big O\testFile.ipynb') result and bug is: 'G:\\Programmierung\\Python\\Portugal Training\\Python-for-Algorithms--Data-Structures--and--Life' if I am not mistaken: correct result would be 'G:\\Programmierung\\Python\\Portugal Training\\Python-for-Algorithms--Data-Structures--and--Life\\Algorithm Analysis and Big O' analog with basename 'Algorithm Analysis and Big O\testFile.ipynb' again, I was expecting 'testFile.ipynb' only With less complex constructs , the function works well. Only that is doubtfull when the names start getting more kind of theses days .... Cheers ! -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
