如何將Perl正則表達式轉換爲Python？

Question

怎樣把這個Perl的正則表達式成Python：

(?: 

    ^(?:never|no|nothing|nowhere|noone|none|not| 
     havent|hasnt|hadnt|cant|couldnt|shouldnt| 
     wont|wouldnt|dont|doesnt|didnt|isnt|arent|aint 
    )$ 

)

n't 

Answer 1

該表達式將工作如在Python。只需使用re.VERBOSE switch或刪除所有空白。

演示：

>>> import re 
>>> pattern = re.compile('''\ 
... (?: 
... 
...  ^(?:never|no|nothing|nowhere|noone|none|not| 
...   havent|hasnt|hadnt|cant|couldnt|shouldnt| 
...   wont|wouldnt|dont|doesnt|didnt|isnt|arent|aint 
... )$ 
... 
...) 
... 
... | 
... 
... n't 
... ''', flags=re.VERBOSE) 
>>> pattern.match('never').group() 
'never' 
>>> pattern.match('wouldnt').group() 
'wouldnt'
