regex python findall code example

Example 1: is there find_all method in re or regex module in python?

>>> text = "He was carefully disguised but captured quickly by police."
>>> re.findall(r"\w+ly", text)
['carefully', 'quickly']

Example 2: regex findall

import re
# regex for finding mentions in a tweet
regex = r"(?<!RT\s)@\S+"
tweet = '@tony I am so over @got and @sarah is dead to me.'

# mentions = ['@tony', '@got', '@sarah'] 
mentions = re.findall(regex, tweet)

Example 3: python .findall

## Search for pattern 'bb' in string 'aabbcc'.
  ## All of the pattern must match, but it may appear anywhere.
  ## On success, match.group() is matched text.
  match = re.search(r'bb', 'aabbcc') # found, match.group() == "bb"
  match = re.search(r'cd', 'aabbcc') # not found, match == None

  ## . = any char but \n
  match = re.search(r'...c', 'aabbcc') # found, match.group() == "abbc"

  ## \d = digit char, \w = word char
  match = re.search(r'\d\d\d', 'p123g') # found, match.group() == "123"
  match = re.search(r'\w\w\w', '@@abcd!!') # found, match.group() == "abc"

Example 4: Python Regex documentation\

>>> import re
>>> m = re.search('(?<=abc)def', 'abcdef')
>>> m.group(0)
'def'

Example 5: python re

m = re.search(r'[cbm]at', 'aat')
print(m)
