regex or pattern python code example

Example 1: Using the Python string below to perform a search using a regular expression that you create. search_string=’’’This is a string to search for a regular expression like regular expression or regular-expression or regular:expression or regular&expression’’’

match1 = re.findall(pattern, search_string)
if match1 != None:
  print(pattern + 'matched')
else:
  print(pattern + 'did not match')

Example 2: python regular expression

import re

# The string you want to find a pattern within
test_string = 'Hello greppers!'

# Creating a regular expression pattern
# This is a simple one which finds "Hello"
pattern = re.compile(r'Hello')

# This locates and returns all the occurences of the pattern
# within the test_string
match = pattern.finditer(test_string)

# Outputs all the ocurrences which were returned as 
# as match objects
for match in matches:
  print(match)
