Hi Folks,
I'm just translating the Python Pocked Reference the
second time, and I stumbled over this:
"funny".split("")
gives a ValueError: empty separator.
Why this?
I would expect
['f','u','n','n','y']
as result, since this is the maximum result of undoing
"".join(['f','u','n','n','y'])
For what reason is this asymmetry?
