python对象str的find和index区别

 

代码可以直接看github上的一个干净代码：https://github.com/wklken/Python-2.7.8

python内置的类型在解释器中实现，相关的内置类型见：https://docs.python.org/2/library/stdtypes.html

 

对应实现的类是：Objects/stringobject.c

 

index方法

PyDoc_STRVAR(index__doc__,
"S.index(sub [,start [,end]]) -> int\n\
\n\
Like S.find() but raise ValueError when the substring is not found.");

static PyObject *
string_index(PyStringObject *self, PyObject *args)
{
    Py_ssize_t result = string_find_internal(self, args, +1);
    if (result == -2)
        return NULL;
    if (result == -1) {
        PyErr_SetString(PyExc_ValueError,
                        "substring not found");
        return NULL;
    }
    return PyInt_FromSsize_t(result);
}

 

 

find方法

PyDoc_STRVAR(rfind__doc__,
"S.rfind(sub [,start [,end]]) -> int\n\
\n\
Return the highest index in S where substring sub is found,\n\
such that sub is contained within S[start:end].  Optional\n\
arguments start and end are interpreted as in slice notation.\n\
\n\
Return -1 on failure.");

static PyObject *
string_rfind(PyStringObject *self, PyObject *args)
{
    Py_ssize_t result = string_find_internal(self, args, -1);
    if (result == -2)
        return NULL;
    return PyInt_FromSsize_t(result);
}

 

 

总结：实际上内部内什么区别，就是在没有找到对应字符串，是一个异常，还是返回-1
