Ok, I've been staring at this and figuring it out for a while. I'm close
to getting it, but I'm confused by the examples:
(?(id/name)yes-pattern|no-pattern)
Will try to match with yes-pattern if the group with given id or name
exists, and with no-pattern if it doesn't. |no-pattern is optional and
can be omitted.
For example, (<)?(\w+@\w+(?: \.\w+)+)(?(1)>) is a poor email matching
pattern, which will match with '<us**@host.com >' as well as
'us**@host.com' , but not with '<us**@host.com '. New in version 2.4.
group(1) is the email address pattern, right? So why does the above RE
match 'us**@host.com' . If the email address exists, does the last part
of the RE: (?(1)>) mean that it has to end with a '>'? 3 2472

I think I got it. The group(1) is referring to the opening '<', not the
email address. I had seen an earlier example that used group(0), so I
thought maybe the groups were 0-based.

The groups *are* 0-based. The 0th group is the whole match, e.g.: import re m = re.match(r'a(b+ )', 'abbbb') m.group(0)
'abbbb' m.group(1)
'bbbb'
And for the pattern you were looking at:
m = re.match(r'(<)? (\w+@\w+(?:\.\w +)+)(?(1)>)', '<fo*@test.com> ') m.group(0)
'<fo*@test.com> ' m.group(1)
'<' m.group(2)
'fo*@test.com'

Ah, I see! But I also read that if a group number starts with 0, it is
treated as octal. Did I read that wrong, or maybe it doesn't matter
since 0 is 0 in any base system? This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

In the context of LATEX, some Pythonista asked what the big

a. orbitz.com web site uses Lisp for algorithms, etc.

c. Emacs

Hi!
I've got a problem with the GC.keepalive function,
as used in the examples at
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/library/system.gc.keepalive.aspx
..
There they have a class "Example", construct it and call a method,
during which it may get collected.
Why would it get collected, before the last method call ends?
Is this a bug on the GC or is there a resson for it?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
