- Updated the regular expressions for detecting and filtering ANSI color codes. - Replaced the old string literals with raw string literals (prefix `r`) to avoid potential issues with escape sequences. - This change ensures the regular expressions are interpreted correctly by Python's `re` module, avoiding potential bugs caused by unescaped characters. - By applying this fix, we improve the robustness and readability of the regular expressions, ensuring they work reliably in all scenarios. Effects of not applying the modification: - Without this change, the regular expressions might not handle escape sequences properly, leading to incorrect matching or errors during pattern compilation. - This could cause failures in filtering out ANSI color codes, resulting in incorrect or garbled output in the application.
- Updated the regular expression pattern in the `string_to_alphanumeric` function to use a raw string literal (prefix `r`). - This ensures that backslashes in the pattern are treated correctly, preventing potential issues with escape sequences. - By making this change, we ensure that the regular expression is interpreted as intended, avoiding any unexpected behavior when cleaning the string. Effects of not applying the modification: - Without this fix, the regular expression might not behave correctly due to escape sequences being misinterpreted by Python’s `re` module. - This could lead to errors in cleaning the string, potentially causing incorrect output or failure to properly remove non-alphanumeric characters.
