>>> re.findall(r'^|\w+', 'two words') ['', 'wo', 'words'] Seems the current behavior was documented incorrectly in issue732120. It will be fixed in 3.7 (see issue1647489, issue25054), but I hesitate to backport the fix to 3.6 and 2.7 because this can break the user code. For example: In Python 3.6: >>> list(re.finditer(r'(?m)^\s*?$', 'foo\n\n\nbar')) [<_sre.SRE_Match object; span=(4, 4), match=''>, <_sre.SRE_Match object; span=(5, 5), match=''>] In Python 3.7: >>> list(re.finditer(r'(?m)^\s*?$', 'foo\n\n\nbar')) [<re.Match object; span=(4, 4), match=''>, <re.Match object; span=(4, 5), match='\n'>, <re.Match object; span=(5, 5), match=''>] (This is a real pattern used in the docstring module, but with re.sub()). The proposed PR documents the current weird behavior in 2.7 and 3.6. |
