It still fails if the product description is empty.
>>> split_product("CAPSICUM RED")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<stdin>", line 3, in split_product
StopIteration
I'm not meaning to pick on you; some of the other solutions in this thread
also fail in that case.
>>> re.findall(r"(?m)^([A-Z\s]+) (.+)$", "CAPSICUM RED")
[('CAPSICUM', 'RED')]
>>> prod_desc("CAPSICUM RED") # the second version from Neil's post
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<stdin>", line 14, in prod_desc
IndexError: string index out of range
