Parsing numeric ranges

[Suneel Kingrani]

very well done..
But I thought it may require a little bit of change in the proposed code.. :)

def _revision_list_with_ranges_to_list_without_ranges(revision_list):
        for revision in revision_list.split(','):
            if '-' in str(revision):
                from_revision, _, to_revision = str(revision).partition('-')
                for revision_in_range in range(int(from_revision),
    int(to_revision)+1):
                    yield revision_in_range
            else:
                yield int(revision)



cheers:

I dredged this out:



def _revision_list_with_ranges_to_list_without_ranges(revision_list):
    '''Convert a revision list with ranges (e.g. '1,3,5-7') to a
simple list without ranges (1,3,5,6,7)'''
    for revision in revision_list:
        if '-' in revision:
            from_revision, _, to_revision = revision.partition('-')
             for revision_in_range in range(int(from_revision),
int(to_revision)+1):
                yield revision_in_range
        else:
            yield int(revision)
