Backport changed from 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN to 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: REQUIRED, 3.0: REQUIRED I agree that this is intentional and a documentation matter. ---------------------------------------- Bug #18415: String#rpartition is not sufficiently greedy compared to String#partition https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18415#change-95418 * Author: jdashton (J Daniel Ashton) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.1.0preview1 (2021-11-09 master 5a3b2e6141) [x86_64-darwin21] * Backport: 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: REQUIRED, 3.0: REQUIRED ---------------------------------------- ``` ruby 3.1.0-preview1 :043 > "...999...".partition /\d+/ => ["...", "999", "..."] 3.1.0-preview1 :044 > "...999...".rpartition /\d+/ => ["...99", "9", "..."] ``` Using the regex /\d+/, `partition` gives you all consecutive digits. However, `rpartition` gives only the last digit. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
