New submission from Kåre Krig <karek...@gmail.com>:
When I concatenate two strings, with the one on the right hand side being
large, the resulting string is almost correct but has a few chars substituted.
The following code (with (...) added on the print statement for 3.1) prints
False on both Python 2.6.5 & 3.1. The file I read is a 20Mb file of text.
inbuff = open('top.test.in')
full_file = inbuff.readlines()
inbuff.close()
data_string = ''.join(full_file)
buff_A = ' ' + data_string
buff_B = ' ' + data_string
print buff_A == buff_B
I have only been able to test this on one computer, running SUSE. Ram seems
fine as it passed 15h of memtest.
Python versions are:
