No, it is XML metadata. I also believe there should be a better way using [@...] expressions in the path. H. Den lör 7 nov. 2020 13:14Shaozhong SHI skrev: > Hi, Hernan, > > Did you try to parse GML? > > Surely, there can be very concise and smart ways to do these things. > > Regards, > > David

Re: strip() method makes me confused

2020-11-07 Thread Alexander Neilson
Because the strip methods argument is the set of characters to remove from either end. So it checks from the ends character by character until it finds a character that isn’t in the set. Then it removes everything prior to that (or after that at end of the string) and then returns the result.
