how to split extension from path
I'm a beginner of Python. I tried to split extension. I don't know the best way. use os.path.splitext? or regexp?
In case of regexp
>>> import pre
>>> p = re.compile('^.*\.(.*)')
>>> m = p.match('http://www.example.com/index.html')
>>> m.group(1)
'html'
Or in case of os.path.splitext
>>> import os.path
>>> os.path.splitext('http://www. example.com/index.html')
('http://www. example.com/index', '.html')
I like using os.path.splitext rather than regexp in this case. Any thought?
