Hello, I'm a beginner Python user and I have simple python issue I can't seem to solve. I want to do a truth test on a string to see if a another string is contained within it. I found that typically the re module has the methods to accomplish this. However, every string I'm searching begins with a metacharacter. For example: if the string '*I need *help' contains the word 'help' then true, else false.. Any advice you can provide would be great. Thanks, Adam
