Hi,
I'm trying to compare two strings because I want to find the difference.
i.e.
string1 = "foobar"
string2 = "foobzr"
is there a simple way to do this with a for loop? This is the method I
tried, but it gives me an error:
In [14]: for x, y in bar[0], bar[1]:
....: print x, y
....:
....:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ValueError Traceback (most recent call last)
D:\Documents and Settings\Wayne\<ipython console> in <module>()
ValueError: too many values to unpack
I suppose I could do:
for x in xrange(0, len(bar[0])):
print bar[0][x], bar[1][x] #yes I realize there's no comparison here,
I know how to do that - this is just a placeholder
Would that be the "best"/most pythonic solution?
Thanks,
Wayne
