Thanks for the conclusive answer.
Not conclusive - just my opinion. Which is informed, but not infallible ;-)
I will checkout the regex library soon.
You may not realize how easy this is? Just in case: go to a shell and type
pip install regex
(or, on Windows, "python -m pip install regex" in a DOS box).
That's it. You're done. Now you can use regex. In some cases, you can put "import regex as re" at the top of a module At worst, replace instances of "re" with "regex". Stay away from the new features, and it's highly compatible with Python;s re.
I suspect that like me what was meant is that checkout means read the docs to understand regex features. The install is trivial. Barry
