in 3.6 t == '*', in 3.7 and later it is '**'. To be honest I don't like the 3.7 behaviour, it is very surprising even if it is technically correct (the first '*' is from a match from the entire string, the second one is from an empty match at the end of the string). A workaround is to explicitly anchor the regular expression (for example by adding '^' to the start). ---------- nosy: +ronaldoussoren _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41605> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
