Quentin Wenger <wenger.quen...@bluewin.ch> added the comment:
An extraneous difficulty also exists for bytes regexes, because there non-ascii characters are repr'ed using escape sequences. So there's a risk of cutting one in the middle. ``` >>> import re >>> re.match(b".*", b"\xce") <re.Match object; span=(0, 1), match=b'\xce'> ``` ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39949> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
