[OT] Sorry, but I find all these "timeit" I see here and there
more and more ridiculous.

Maybe it's the language itself, which became ridiculous.


code:

r = repeat("('WHERE IN THE WORLD IS CARMEN?'*10).lower()")
print('1:', r)

r = repeat("('WHERE IN THE WORLD IS HÉLÈNE?'*10).lower()")
print('2:', r)

t = Timer("re.sub('CARMEN', 'CARMEN', 'WHERE IN THE WORLD IS
CARMEN?'*10)", "import re")
r = t.repeat()
print('3:', r)

t = Timer("re.sub('HÉLÈNE', 'HÉLÈNE', 'WHERE IN THE WORLD IS
HÉLÈNE?'*10)", "import re")
r = t.repeat()
print('4:', r)

result:

The future is bright for ... ascii users.
