Find all the occurrences of a character in a string

Question

I am trying to find all the occurences of \"|\" in a string.

def findSectionOffsets(text):
    startingPos = 0
    endPos = len(text)

    for position in te         


        

Answer 1

It is easier to use regular expressions here;

import re

def findSectionOffsets(text):
    for m in re.finditer('\|', text):
        print m.start(0)
