17r"""Support for regular expressions (RE).
18
19This module provides regular expression matching operations similar to
20those found in Perl.  It supports both 8-bit and Unicode strings; both
21the pattern and the strings being processed can contain null bytes and
22characters outside the US ASCII range.
23
24Regular expressions can contain both special and ordinary characters.
25Most ordinary characters, like "A", "a", or "0", are the simplest
26regular expressions; they simply match themselves.  You can
27concatenate ordinary characters, so last matches the string 'last'.
28
29The special characters are:
30    "."      Matches any character except a newline.
31    "^"      Matches the start of the string.
32    "$"      Matches the end of the string or just before the newline at
33             the end of the string.
34    "*"      Matches 0 or more (greedy) repetitions of the preceding RE.
35             Greedy means that it will match as many repetitions as possible.
36    "+"      Matches 1 or more (greedy) repetitions of the preceding RE.
37    "?"      Matches 0 or 1 (greedy) of the preceding RE.
38    *?,+?,?? Non-greedy versions of the previous three special characters.
39    {m,n}    Matches from m to n repetitions of the preceding RE.
40    {m,n}?   Non-greedy version of the above.
41    "\\"     Either escapes special characters or signals a special sequence.
42    []       Indicates a set of characters.
43             A "^" as the first character indicates a complementing set.
44    "|"      A|B, creates an RE that will match either A or B.
45    (...)    Matches the RE inside the parentheses.
46             The contents can be retrieved or matched later in the string.
47    (?aiLmsux) Set the A, I, L, M, S, U, or X flag for the RE (see below).
48    (?:...)  Non-grouping version of regular parentheses.
49    (?P<name>...) The substring matched by the group is accessible by name.
50    (?P=name)     Matches the text matched earlier by the group named name.
51    (?#...)  A comment; ignored.
52    (?=...)  Matches if ... matches next, but doesn't consume the string.
53    (?!...)  Matches if ... doesn't match next.
54    (?<=...) Matches if preceded by ... (must be fixed length).
55    (?<!...) Matches if not preceded by ... (must be fixed length).
56    (?(id/name)yes|no) Matches yes pattern if the group with id/name matched,
57                       the (optional) no pattern otherwise.
58
59The special sequences consist of "\\" and a character from the list
60below.  If the ordinary character is not on the list, then the
61resulting RE will match the second character.
62    \number  Matches the contents of the group of the same number.
63    \A       Matches only at the start of the string.
64    \Z       Matches only at the end of the string.
65    \b       Matches the empty string, but only at the start or end of a word.
66    \B       Matches the empty string, but not at the start or end of a word.
67    \d       Matches any decimal digit; equivalent to the set [0-9] in
68             bytes patterns or string patterns with the ASCII flag.
69             In string patterns without the ASCII flag, it will match the whole
70             range of Unicode digits.
71    \D       Matches any non-digit character; equivalent to [^\d].
72    \s       Matches any whitespace character; equivalent to [ \t\n\r\f\v] in
73             bytes patterns or string patterns with the ASCII flag.
74             In string patterns without the ASCII flag, it will match the whole
75             range of Unicode whitespace characters.
76    \S       Matches any non-whitespace character; equivalent to [^\s].
77    \w       Matches any alphanumeric character; equivalent to [a-zA-Z0-9_]
78             in bytes patterns or string patterns with the ASCII flag.
79             In string patterns without the ASCII flag, it will match the
80             range of Unicode alphanumeric characters (letters plus digits
81             plus underscore).
82             With LOCALE, it will match the set [0-9_] plus characters defined
83             as letters for the current locale.
84    \W       Matches the complement of \w.
85    \\       Matches a literal backslash.
86
87This module exports the following functions:
88    match     Match a regular expression pattern to the beginning of a string.
89    fullmatch Match a regular expression pattern to all of a string.
90    search    Search a string for the presence of a pattern.
91    sub       Substitute occurrences of a pattern found in a string.
92    subn      Same as sub, but also return the number of substitutions made.
93    split     Split a string by the occurrences of a pattern.
94    findall   Find all occurrences of a pattern in a string.
95    finditer  Return an iterator yielding a match object for each match.
96    compile   Compile a pattern into a RegexObject.
97    purge     Clear the regular expression cache.
98    escape    Backslash all non-alphanumerics in a string.
99
100Some of the functions in this module takes flags as optional parameters:
101    A  ASCII       For string patterns, make \w, \W, \b, \B, \d, \D
102                   match the corresponding ASCII character categories
103                   (rather than the whole Unicode categories, which is the
104                   default).
105                   For bytes patterns, this flag is the only available
106                   behaviour and needn't be specified.
107    I  IGNORECASE  Perform case-insensitive matching.
108    L  LOCALE      Make \w, \W, \b, \B, dependent on the current locale.
109    M  MULTILINE   "^" matches the beginning of lines (after a newline)
110                   as well as the string.
111                   "$" matches the end of lines (before a newline) as well
112                   as the end of the string.
113    S  DOTALL      "." matches any character at all, including the newline.
114    X  VERBOSE     Ignore whitespace and comments for nicer looking RE's.
115    U  UNICODE     For compatibility only. Ignored for string patterns (it
116                   is the default), and forbidden for bytes patterns.
117
118This module also defines an exception 'error'.
