Mark Summerfield added the comment: I think the str.casefold() docs are fine as far as they go, rightly covering what it _does_ rather than _how_, yet providing a reference for the details. But what they lack is more complete information. For example I discovered this:
x = "files and shuffles" x 'files and shuffles' x.casefold() 'files and shuffles'
In view of this I would add one sentence: In addition to lowercasing, this function also expands ligatures, for example, "fi" becomes "fi". ---------- nosy: +mark _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13828> _______________________________________
