When I'm debugging a regex I make the regex shorter and shorter to figure out
what the problem is.
Try starting with re.compile(r'm') and then add the chars one by one seeing
what happens as the string gets longer.

Thanks David /Anthony for your help. I figured out the issue myself. I
dont need any ^, $ etc to the regex pattern and the plain string (for exp
my-dog) works fine. I am looking at creating a generic method so that
instead of passing my-dog i can pass my-cat or blah blah. I am thinking of

Thanks David for your quick help. Appreciate it. When I tried on python
2.7.3 the same thing you did below I got the error after matches.group(0)
as follows:
AttributeError: NoneType object has no attribute 'group'.
I tried to check 'None' for no match for re.search as the documentation
says but

Hi all,
I was playing around with regular expressions and testing the simple
regular expression and its notworking for some reason.
I want to search "my-dog" at any of the place in a string and return the
index but its not working. I tried both in python 3.7.3 and 2.7.x. Can
anyone please help?

If you plan on doing more work with regular expressions in the future and you
have access to a Windows machine you may want to consider picking up a copy of
RegxBuddy. I don't have any affiliation with the makers but I have been using
the software for a few years and it has saved me a lot of fru

Hi,
So I am trying to get the number of casualties in a text. After 'death
toll' in the text the number I need is presented as you can see from
the variable called text. Here is my code
I'm pretty sure my regex is correct, I think it's the group part

I am using nltk by python. G
