Of course there is a loop over the reults of the match to determine which sub-expression matched, but a good regexp library (which I presume Python has) should match the sub-expressions without looping over them. The techniques to do this were well known in the 1970's when the first versons of lex were written. Not that I would recommend tricks like this.

[OT]Scipy plotting problems

Hi, I'm using Scipy on Debian Gnu/Linux. (python2.3-scipy) in a program that have to show plots but while i'm testing capabilities of the three possible options (gplt, plt an xplt) a couple of questions comes up.

How can I tell if my host supports Python?
