Whatever the change, bytes and bytearray should act the same.
>>> b = bytes(range(8))
>>> b
b'\x00\x01\x02\x03\x04\x05\x06\x07'
>>> b.partition(3)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#2>", line 1, in <module>
b.partition(3)
TypeError: expected bytes, bytearray or buffer compatible object
As noted in the thread, ba.partition(a) apparently is executed as ba.partition(bytearray(a)) if a is not a bytearray (or maybe not a buffer object). bytearray(3) == bytearray((0,0,0)) and the latter is not in ba and hence the output given is 'correct'. |
