A
The re.findall() function allows you to find all matches
of a given regular expression in a target string.
import re l = re.findall(pattern, string, flags=0) Where: pattern is the regular expression string is the target string l is a list of matches
If the regular expression has groups, each match in the returning list is a tuple of matched groups.
Here is Python example that shows you how to use the re.findall() function:
>>> import re
>>> s = "Hello perl.org, php.net, and python.org!"
>>> p = "(\\w+)\\.(\\w+)"
>>> print(p)
(\w+)\.(\w+)
>>> l = re.findall(p,s)
>>> print(l)
[('perl', 'org'), ('php', 'net'), ('python', 'org')]
⇒ re.match() - Match from String Beginning
⇐ re.search() - Search for First Match
