The caret has several meanings: * Generally, it is a beginning of string: r'^bol' * When MULTILINE is on, it is a beginning of line: r'^bos' * Escaped with a backslash, it is just a caret: r'a\^b' * Immediately after a left bracket, it inverts a character set: r'[^aeiou]' * Elsewhere in brackets, it is just a caret: r'[ab^d]' ---------- nosy: +rhettinger versions: -Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35584> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
