If it returns the whole string how would you test that a returned value was a not-found rather than a true result?

I often need to re-code for myself a small code snippet to define
string.upto() and string.from(), which are used like :
[snip]
# if not found, return whole string
> "hello, world !".upto("#")
"hello, world !"
> u"hello, world !".from("#")
u"hello, world !"
