re python library code example

Example 1: python re compile

import re
#	Compile a regular expression pattern into a regular expression object, which can be used for matching using its match(), search() and other methods, described below.

prog = re.compile(pattern)
result = prog.match(string)

#	is equivalent to

result = re.match(pattern, string)

Example 2: re python3

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