I am frustrated to see %d not working in my Python 2.7 re.search, like this example:
>>> (re.search('%d', "asdfdsf78asdfdf")).group(0) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group' \d works fine: >>> (re.search('\d+', "asdfdsf78asdfdf")).group(0) '78' And google search ignores % in their search, so I failed to find answer from Python mailing list or web, Do you have any idea what's problem here?
