Hi,
I am trying to use the following snippet of code to print a regex match.
s = '01234567890123456789x012'
pat = r'(.*?x|[^a]+)*y'
mo = re.search(pat, s)
if mo is not None:
print mo.group(0)
By adding one character before the 'x' in the input string, the time taken
to print the match doubles. This behaviour is not observed in perl. I am
curious to know about the difference the in regex implementations of perl
and python which causes this.
Thanks
