For the target of the method, this is true, but it's not true for the results which is what we're talking about describing here. 'left' is whatever is to the left of the separator and 'right' is whatever is to the right of the separator. Seems obvious to me. I believe (left, sep, right) will be the clearest description for all users, with little chance of confusion. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBRP3HIXEjvBPtnXfVAQIx5wP+MPF5tk4moX4jH0yhGvR6gKcGBusyN152 redIr0xiNqECfrIHkc756UDLn3HhB2WdEjR9pn06RzmbgePMPcGP19cjZdHGwjFK 3e4Qg8zW3cL0iCnybL4AEaoZksuHGwJpZbId9HF60GFqYdjNTKEMNIVRI7jTE9pP zbBO6Sscnl0= =HB4k -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
