Hello, I have a problem finding specific words. I would like to filter out a word or replace it in a file. I notices that the re module is good for finding patterns.
I am trying to filter out a word from strings, but having a little trouble. I was wondering if I can search a string for a specific word and nothing else. For example: hello, Othello. # just the hello and not Othello I know that I could probably put the string in a list and replace it. But I was wondering if it is possible using re module or the other find type attributes to find it. hello will not be necessarily at the beginning or end, so I am opting not to use endswith or startswith. Thank you. Best regards, tak _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
