Help on function findall in module re:
findall(pattern, string, flags=0)
Return a list of all non-overlapping matches in the string.
If one or more groups are present in the pattern, return a
list of groups; this will be a list of tuples if the pattern
has more than one group.
Empty matches are included in the result.
>>> re.findall('e','fredbarneybettywilma')
['e', 'e', 'e']
depending on what is intended the non-overlapping behaviour of findall()
may cause some problem:
>>> re.findall('.[aeiou].','fredbarneybettywilma')
['red', 'bar', 'ney', 'bet', 'wil']
>>> re.findall('.[aeiouy].','fredbarneybettywilma')
['red', 'bar', 'ney', 'bet', 'tyw']
Overlapping matches are supported by this regex module:
