Hi,
a lot of times I need to replace more than one char into a string, so I
have to do something like
value = "test"
chars = "e"
for c in chars:
value = value.replace(c, "")
A solution could be that "replace" accept a tuple/list of chars, like
that was add into the new 2.5 for startswith.
I don't know, but can be this feature included into a future python release?
Let's say you want to make every vowel uppercase:
import string
trans_table = string.maketrans('aeiou', 'AEIOU')
"I don't know, but can be this feature included into".translate(trans_table)
prints:
"I dOn't knOw, bUt cAn bE thIs fEAtUrE InclUdEd IntO"
That more than addresses your requirements, as it can do multiple
character substitutions multiple times in one call.
