I have a straightforward question about the str object, specifically
the PyUnicodeObject. I've tried reading the source to answer the
question myself but it's nearly impenetrable. So I was hoping
someone here who understands the current implementation could answer
it for me.<br>
<br>
Although the str object is immutable from Python's perspective, the
C object itself is mutable. For example, for dynamically-created
strings the hash field may be lazy-computed and cached inside the
object. I was wondering if there were other fields like this. For
example, are there similar lazy-computed cached objects for the
different encoded versions (utf8 utf16) of the str? What would
really help an exhaustive list of the fields of a str object that
may ever change after the object's initial creation. Thanks!<br>
