python字符串最长长度_Python字符串的最大长度是多少？

我在EC2实例上运行此代码。

def create1k():

s = ""

for i in range(1024):

s += '*'

return s

def create1m():

s = ""

x = create1k()

for i in range(1024):

s += x

return s

def create1g():

s = ""

x = create1m()

for i in range(1024):

s += x

return s

print("begin")

s = ""

x = create1g()

for i in range(1024):

s += x

print(str(i) + "g ok")

print(str(len(s)) + ' bytes')

这就是输出

简短的答案是EC2实例r3.4xlarge：如果你有以上的RAM 100GB，一个Python字符串最多可以使用这么多的内存。
