* Attempt to make all the various string *strip methods the same.Neal Norwitz2003-04-101-9/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | * Doc - add doc for when functions were added * UserString * string object methods * string module functions 'chars' is used for the last parameter everywhere. These changes will be backported, since part of the changes have already been made, but they were inconsistent.
* Update the docstring to match the code. Will backport.Neal Norwitz2002-11-141-1/+3

* Make strip behave as documented. Will backport to 2.2.3.Martin v. Löwis2002-11-081-2/+2

* Remove uses of the string and types modules:Walter Dörwald2002-06-031-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | x in string.whitespace => x.isspace() type(x) in types.StringTypes => isinstance(x, basestring) isinstance(x, types.StringTypes) => isinstance(x, basestring) type(x) is types.StringType => isinstance(x, str) type(x) == types.StringType => isinstance(x, str) string.split(x, ...) => x.split(...) string.join(x, y) => y.join(x) string.zfill(x, ...) => x.zfill(...) string.count(x, ...) => x.count(...) hasattr(types, "UnicodeType") => try: unicode except NameError: type(x) != types.TupleTuple => not isinstance(x, tuple) isinstance(x, types.TupleType) => isinstance(x, tuple) type(x) is types.IntType => isinstance(x, int) Do not mention the string module in the rlcompleter docstring. This partially applies SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/562373 (with basestring instead of string). (It excludes the changes to unittest.py and does not change the os.stat stuff.)
* Apply the second version of SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/536241Walter Dörwald2002-04-151-8/+6
| | | | | | | | | | Add a method zfill to str, unicode and UserString and change Lib/string.py accordingly. This activates the zfill version in unicodeobject.c that was commented out and implements the same in stringobject.c. It also adds the test for unicode support in Lib/string.py back in and uses repr() instead() of str() (as it was before Lib/string.py 1.62)
* [Bug #536241] string.zfill() produces mangled output for a Unicode string.Andrew M. Kuchling2002-03-291-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Walter Doerwald provided a patch, which I've modified in two ways: 1) (Uncontroversial) Removed code to make module work in earlier versions of Python without the unicode() built-in 2) (Poss. controversial) Instead of making string.zfill take the repr() of non-string objects, take the str(). Should a warning be added to this branch of the code so that the automatic str() can be deprecated? 2.2.2 bugfix candidate, assuming the repr()->str() change is deemed OK.
* string.split() docstring described the interpretation of the maxsplitFred Drake2002-01-301-3/+3
| | | | | argument incorrectly. This closes SF bug #505997.
* Added the constants ascii_letters, ascii_lowercase, and ascii_uppercaseFred Drake2001-07-201-0/+3
| | | | | to the string module. This was determined to be the right approach in SF bug #226706.
* removed __all__ from several modulesSkip Montanaro2001-02-181-6/+0
|
* bunch more __all__ listsSkip Montanaro2001-02-151-0/+6
| | | | | | also modified check_all function to suppress all warnings since they aren't relevant to what this test is doing (allows quiet checking of regsub, for instance)

* Make string.translate(s, table) work for Unicode s. Two things areGuido van Rossum2000-12-191-4/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | required to work around restrictions on the arguments of u.translate(): 1) don't pass the deletions argument if it's empty; 2) convert table to Unicode if s is Unicode. This fixes SF bug #124060.
* Fix serious typo!Fred Drake2000-09-181-1/+3
| | | | Add the new constants to the module docstring.
* Richard Mortier <rmm1002@users.sourceforge.net>:Fred Drake2000-09-181-0/+2
| | | | Add the constants "printable" and "punctuation" to the string module.
* Spelling fixes supplied by Rob W. W. Hooft. All these are fixes in eitherThomas Wouters2000-07-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't"). There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)
* Martin von Löwis <martin@loewis.home.cs.tu-berlin.de>:Fred Drake2000-07-031-40/+9
| | | | | | | This patch delegates more string functions to string object methods, uses the varargs delegation syntax, and stops using stringold. Closes SourceForge patch #100712.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | his copy of test_contains.py seems to be broken -- the lines he deleted were already absent). Checkin messages: New Unicode support for int(), float(), complex() and long(). - new APIs PyInt_FromUnicode() and PyLong_FromUnicode() - added support for Unicode to PyFloat_FromString() - new encoding API PyUnicode_EncodeDecimal() which converts Unicode to a decimal char* string (used in the above new APIs) - shortcuts for calls like int(<int object>) and float(<float obj>) - tests for all of the above Unicode compares and contains checks: - comparing Unicode and non-string types now works; TypeErrors are masked, all other errors such as ValueError during Unicode coercion are passed through (note that PyUnicode_Compare does not implement the masking -- PyObject_Compare does this) - contains now works for non-string types too; TypeErrors are masked and 0 returned; all other errors are passed through Better testing support for the standard codecs. Misc minor enhancements, such as an alias dbcs for the mbcs codec. Changes: - PyLong_FromString() now applies the same error checks as does PyInt_FromString(): trailing garbage is reported as error and not longer silently ignored. The only characters which may be trailing the digits are 'L' and 'l' -- these are still silently ignored. - string.ato?() now directly interface to int(), long() and float(). The error strings are now a little different, but the type still remains the same. These functions are now ready to get declared obsolete ;-) - PyNumber_Int() now also does a check for embedded NULL chars in the input string; PyNumber_Long() already did this (and still does) Followed by: Looks like I've gone a step too far there... (and test_contains.py seem to have a bug too). I've changed back to reporting all errors in PyUnicode_Contains() and added a few more test cases to test_contains.py (plus corrected the join() NameError).
* Marc-Andre Lemburg: the maxsplit argument for split() and replace()Guido van Rossum2000-03-101-4/+4
| | | | | now defaults to -1, not to 0. Passing an explicit zero doesn't split or replace at all.
* Detabify.Fred Drake2000-02-101-28/+28
| | | | I ran "expand" instead of using Skip's patch, but it's all the same.
* The third and final doc-string sweep by Ka-Ping Yee.Guido van Rossum2000-02-041-7/+5
| | | | | | | | The attached patches update the standard library so that all modules have docstrings beginning with one-line summaries. A new docstring was added to formatter. The docstring for os.py was updated to mention nt, os2, ce in addition to posix, dos, mac.

* As Tim Peters points out, ``from string import *'' should not set re to None.Guido van Rossum1998-04-201-9/+11
| | | | Also rename safe_env to _safe_env.
* Strip argument to atol and atof to match what strop does better.Guido van Rossum1998-03-301-2/+2

* A few lines were indented using spaces instead of tabs -- fix them.Guido van Rossum1998-03-261-4/+5
|
* Minor editing corrections.Guido van Rossum1997-12-291-13/+13
|
* Added doc string, provided by Charles Waldman (with some reformattingGuido van Rossum1997-12-291-0/+223
| | | | and a little editing my me).
* At Barry's suggestion, plug the security leak by using an emptyGuido van Rossum1997-12-101-3/+6
| | | | | | __builtins__ for all calls to eval(). This still allows someone to write string.atof("[1]*1000000") (which Jim Fulton worries about) but effectively disables access to system modules and functions.
* Since this module is used as a fallback in case no built-in modulesGuido van Rossum1997-12-101-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | have been configured, string.atof() should not fail when "import re" fails (usually because pcre is not there). This opens up a tiny security hole: *if* an attacker can make "import re" fail, they can also make string.atof(arbitrary_string) evaluate the arbitrary string. Nothing to keep me awake at night...
* In string.split(), honor maxsplit (if > 0).Guido van Rossum1997-12-011-2/+8
| | | | | | | | In string.splitfields(), ignore maxsplit if <= 0, rather than ignoring maxsplit=0 but effectively treating negative numbers the same as maxsplit=1. Also made the test for maxsplit slightly more efficient (set it to the length of the string when <= 0 so the test for its presence can be omitted from the loop).
* Convert all remaining *simple* cases of regex usage to re usage.Guido van Rossum1997-10-221-3/+6
|
* Add optional 4th argument to count(), matching find() etc.Guido van Rossum1997-10-201-7/+14
| | | | | | Also change all occurrences of "x == None" to "x is None" (not that it matters much, these functions are all reimplemented in strop -- but count() is not).
* Changed my mind on replace().Guido van Rossum1997-04-021-12/+2
| | | | | | It's now replace(str, old, new, maxsplit=0). Note new ordering of parameters (string first); this is more consistent with translate().
* Added new functions replace() and replace1().Guido van Rossum1997-03-251-0/+15
|
* Add optional 4th argument to [r]find and [r]index (end of slice).Guido van Rossum1997-03-141-10/+26

* Use correct separator for capwords(s, sep).Guido van Rossum1996-08-261-1/+1
|
* Add optional separator character to capwords(), for completeness.Guido van Rossum1996-08-201-2/+2
|
* Add optional third parameter to split() and splitfields(), giving theGuido van Rossum1996-08-081-4/+22
| | | | | maximum number of delimiters to parse; e.g. splitfields("a,b,c,d", ",", 2) -> ["a", "b", "c,d"].
* Added 3rd optional argument to translate(), a string of characters to delete.Guido van Rossum1996-07-231-9/+23
