I am using Python Markdown to parse the following table.
Escape sequences | Character represented
-----------------|--------------------------
\b | Backspace
\t | Tab
\f | Form feed
\n | New line
\r | Carriage return
\\ | Backslash
\' | Single quote
\" | Double quote
\uNNNN | where NNNN is a unicode number, with this escape sequence you can print unicode characters
Here is the code i am using
html = markdown.markdown(str, extensions=['markdown.extensions.tables', 'markdown.extensions.fenced_code',
'markdown.extensions.toc', 'markdown.extensions.wikilinks'])
print(html)
and here is the error
SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 1000-1001: truncated \uXXXX escape
The problem here is that your input string contains the backslash symbol which has special meaning . To let it work your input data should look like:
Escape sequences | Character represented
-----------------|--------------------------
\\b | Backspace
\\t | Tab
\\f | Form feed
\\n | New line
\\r | Carriage return
\\\\ | Backslash
\\' | Single quote
\\" | Double quote
\\uNNNN | where NNNN is a unicode number, with this escape sequence you can print unicode characters
ie backslash should be escaped by itself. The dumb way to reach this - probably just make some preprocessing before parsing with markdown:
str.replace('\\', '\\\\') # yes, here too :)
