New submission from Balachander Ganesan <gb.balachan...@gmail.com>: Version: ======== Python 2.4.3 (#1, Jan 14 2008, 18:31:21) [GCC 4.1.2 20070626 (Red Hat 4.1.2-14)] on linux2
Description: ============ When the pattern used for strip contains "-" character then it removes one more characters next to it. >>> a = 'image-abc-1.2.0-12_1234_123' >>> b = a.strip('image-') >>> print b bc-1.2.0-12_1234_123 >From the above print statement we can see that instead of >'bc-1.2.0-12_1234_123', it prints only 'bc-1.2.0-12_1234_123'. The first character "a" next to "-" is missing. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 105598 nosy: Balachander.Ganesan priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: strip() is removing an extra character if the strip pattern contains "-" type: behavior versions: 3rd party _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8700> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
