find-step supplements Python str.find() and bytes.find() methods with an extra step argument - just like slicing has s[start:end:step].
Usage
If step is None, 1, or omitted then behaviour is unchanged from str.find() or bytes.find().
>>> import find_step
>>> find_step.find('.a.a.a.a', 'a') # Same as '.a.a.a.a'.find('a')
1If step is 2 or higher then only indexes satisfying start + n * step are tried, where n >= 0.
>>> find_step.find('.a.a.a.a', 'a', None, None, 3) # Tries index 0, then index 3
3
>>> find_step.find('hello', 'l', 1, None, 2) # Tries index 1, then index 1 + 2 = 3
3
>>> find_step.find('abcde', 'c', 1, None, 2) # Tries index 1, then 3, then 5
-1If step is O then ValueError is raised, as in slice notation.
>>> find_step.find('abc', 'a', None, None, 0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
