pattern = r"(your base)" sentence = "All your base are belong to us." match = re.search(pattern, sentence) match.group(1) # Out: 'your base' match = re.search(r"(belong.*)", sentence) match.group(1) # Out: 'belong to us.' Searching is done anywhere in the ...

Grouping is done with parentheses. Calling group() returns a string formed of the matching parenthesized subgroups. match.group() # Group without argument returns the entire match found # Out: '123' match.group(0) # Specifying 0 gives the same result as specifying no argument # Out: '123' Arg...

Special characters (like the character class brackets [ and ] below) are not matched literally: match = re.search(r'[b]', 'a[b]c') match.group() # Out: 'b' By escaping the special characters, they can be matched literally: match = re.search(r'\[b\]', 'a[b]c') match.group() # Out: '[b]' T...

Replacements can be made on strings using re.sub. Replacing strings re.sub(r"t[0-9][0-9]", "foo", "my name t13 is t44 what t99 ever t44") # Out: 'my name foo is foo what foo ever foo' Using group references Replacements with a small number of groups can be made a...

The Basics The simplist way to convert one date format into another is to use strtotime() with date(). strtotime() will convert the date into a Unix Timestamp. That Unix Timestamp can then be passed to date() to convert it to the new format. $timestamp = strtotime('2008-07-01T22:35:17.02'); $new_...

MATLAB allows for several methods to index (access) elements of matrices and arrays: Subscript indexing - where you specify the position of the elements you want in each dimension of the matrix separately. Linear indexing - where the matrix is treated as a vector, no matter its dimensions. That ...

re.findall(r"[0-9]{2,3}", "some 1 text 12 is 945 here 4445588899") # Out: ['12', '945', '444', '558', '889'] Note that the r before "[0-9]{2,3}" tells python to interpret the string as-is; as a "raw" string. You could also use re.finditer() which works in...

Given some JSON file "foo.json" like: {"foo": {"bar": {"baz": 1}}} we can call the module directly from the command line (passing the filename as an argument) to pretty-print it: $ python -m json.tool foo.json { "foo": { "bar...

Number('0') === 0 Number('0') will convert the string ('0') into a number (0) A shorter, but less clear, form: +'0' === 0 The unary + operator does nothing to numbers, but converts anything else to a number. Interestingly, +(-12) === -12. parseInt('0', 10) === 0 parseInt('0', 10) will c...

String(0) === '0' String(0) will convert the number (0) into a string ('0'). A shorter, but less clear, form: '' + 0 === '0'

In most environments, console.table() can be used to display objects and arrays in a tabular format. For example: console.table(['Hello', 'world']); displays like: (index)value0"Hello"1"world" console.table({foo: 'bar', bar: 'baz'}); displays like: (index)value"fo...

Given a function that accepts a Node-style callback, fooFn(options, function callback(err, result) { ... }); you can promisify it (convert it to a promise-based function) like this: function promiseFooFn(options) { return new Promise((resolve, reject) => fooFn(options, (err, re...
