New submission from Pavel Cisar: Hi, python re returns wrong end index of searched group and also subgroup itself.
Example: In: price_string = u"1 307 000,00 Kč" In: match = re.search(r"([,\.]00)\s?.*$", price_string) In: print price_string, "|", match.groups(), "|", match.group(0), "|", match.start(0), "|", match.end(0), "|", match.span() Out: 1 307 000,00 Kč | (u',00',) | ,00 Kč | 9 | 15 | (9, 15) As I understand documentation start and end functions should return start and endindex of subgroup matched in search. I .groups() output I see subgroup is correct u',00' but end function returns end index for subgroup ',00 Kč'. Also calling specific subgroup .group(0) returns incorrect one ',00 Kč'. It seems match return end index of whole pattern, not only subgroup. ---------- components: Regular Expressions messages: 279024 nosy: Pavel Cisar, ezio.melotti, mrabarnett priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Wrong end index and subgroup for group match type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28486> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
