bash - How to delete shortest matched pattern from the end of string by re module of python? -


i converting bash code python code.

now make function has same functionality of ${variable%pattern} in bash; delete shortest matched pattern end of string,

for example, expect delete_tail('_usr_home_you_file.ext.tar.oz', r'.') results in '_usr_home_you_file.ext.tar'

i made python function below,

import re  def delete_tail(word,pattern):     return re.sub('{0}.*?$'.format(pattern), '', word)

however, deletes longest matched pattern following.

word='_usr_home_you_file.ext.tar.oz' delete_shortest_match_tail=delete_tail(word,r'\.') print("word = {0}".format(word)) print("delete_shortest_match_tail = {0}". format(delete_shortest_match_tail))

output:

delete_shortest_match_tail = _usr_home_you_file

how can make function deletes shortest matched pattern end of string expected above?

thank much.

you rather want search string in front of pattern rather pattern replace it. regex looks left right , matches reported in order. can't reverse strings, because mess regex pattern. because of can't use sub, replacing empty string same deleting, or taking rest of string. solution does. searches result , omits part don't want.

def removefromend(pattern, target):   m = re.match("(.*)" + pattern + ".*$", target)   if m:     return m.group(0)   else:     return target

>>> removefromend("\.", "foo.tar.gz")

'foo.tar'

Is there a better way to structure post methods in Class Based Views -

i'm using class based views in django , never specify url in ajax calls , omit action parameter in form because know these requests go through post method of class based view. notice view - profile page make many requests depending on user updating on page - post method become convoluted , if/else mess example: def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): # handle user changing available date if request.post.get('availabledate') != none: self.updateavailabledate(request) return jsonresponse({'result':'success'}) if request.post.get('newprojectname') != none: creative_user = creativeuserprofile.objects.get(id = request.user.id) project = project.create_project(creative_user, request.post['newprojectname']) project.save() return jsonresponse({'projectid': project.id }) if request.post.get('projectimage') != none , request.files['file']: proj...

performance - Why is XCHG reg, reg a 3 micro-op instruction on modern Intel architectures? -

i'm doing micro-optimization on performance critical part of code , came across sequence of instructions (in at&t syntax): add %rax, %rbx mov %rdx, %rax mov %rbx, %rdx i thought had use case xchg allow me shave instruction , write: add %rbx, %rax xchg %rax, %rdx however, dimay found agner fog's instruction tables , xchg 3 micro-op instruction 2 cycle latency on sandy bridge, ivy bridge, broadwell, haswell , skylake. 3 whole micro-ops , 2 cycles of latency! 3 micro-ops throws off 4-1-1-1 cadence , 2 cycle latency makes worse original in best case since last 2 instructions in original might execute in parallel. now... cpu might breaking instruction micro-ops equivalent to: mov %rax, %tmp mov %rdx, %rax mov %tmp, %rdx where tmp anonymous internal register , suppose last 2 micro-ops run in parallel latency 2 cycles. given register renaming occurs on these micro-architectures, though, doesn't make sense me done way. why wouldn't register renamer ...
