  • Python Patterns - An Optimization Anecdote

    ...string concatenation functions in the string module that are implemented in C. In particular, string.joinfields(list_of_strings, delimiter) concatenates a list of strings, placing a delimiter of choice between each two strings. Nothing stops us from concatenating a list of characters (which are just strings of length one in Python), using the empty string as delimiter. Lo and behold: import string def f6(list): return string.joinfields(map(chr, list), "") ...

  • Structured Text Formatting Rules

    ...string consists of a sequence of paragraphs separated by one or more blank lines. Each paragraph has a level which is defined as the minimum indentation of the paragraph. A paragraph is a sub-paragraph of another paragraph if the other paragraph is the last preceding paragraph that has a lower level. In doc strings the level 0 indentation (left margin) is set to the starting column of the first non-blank line after the first line. This means the...

  • Standard Exception Classes in Python 1.5

It hasn't been decided whether user-defined string exceptions will be allowed in Python 2.0. The Standard Exception Hierarchy Behold the standard exception hierarchy. It is defined in the new standard library module exceptions.py. Exceptions that were new since Python 1.5 are marked with (*). Exception(*) | +-...

Use " ".join(sequence) for the effect of string.join(sequence); to make this more readable, try space=" " first. Note that the maxsplit argument defaults in split() and replace() have ...

  • Foreword for "Programming Python" (2nd ed.)

    ...string module. Now that string objects have methods, the string module is mostly redundant. I wish I could to declare it obsolete (or deprecated) to encourage Python programmers to start using string methods instead. But given that a large majority of existing Python code -- even many standard library modules -- imports the string module, this change is obviously not going to happen overnight. The first likely opportunity to remove the string module will be at the introduction of Pyth...

  • What's new in Python 2.3

    ...string - an abstract string type which is the base class for str (8-bit strings) and unicode. Primarily used to simplify tests for string-ness to isinstance(x, basestring). bool, True, False - these were introduced as ints in Python 2.2.1, but are now a separate type (a subtype of int). This means that True and False are now printed as the strings 'True' and 'False', respectively. As of 2.3b1, bool() without arguments returns False. (PEP 285) compile(), eval(), exec - fully support Unicode, a...
