No it doesn't. stringb is "hiy" and it "treats" it that way.
(And just what do you mean

You appear to be gravely mistaken:

Try this:
>>> stringa = 'hi'
>>> st
stringa = "hi"
stringb = "hiy"
I'd like it to return -1 when I do:
returnVal = stringa.find(stringb);
Instead, it treats stringa as "hi" and stringb as "hi".
