Answer A: Python Regex to parse multiple "word. word. word."
First of all, let's understand why your regex didn't work. The first part is `\w+\.\s`, which is "one or more alpha-numeric characters" (`\w+`), followed by a dot and a space (`\.\s`). If the regex was only this, it would match `THIS. ` &nbsp;(the word "THIS", plus the dot and space after it). ...

Comment Post #280933 You're closing the parentheses before `format`, so you're calling `format` on the value returned by `print` (which is `None`). It should be `print("{} {}".format(inspect.currentframe().f_code.co_name, path.basename(__file__)))` - https://ideone.com/4z9NRl

Question I can't choose any tags when posting a question
The problem described below occurs in Windows 10 and Chrome 87.0.4280.66 (64 bits, JavaScript enabled). I could post this question only in mobile (Chrome/iOS 14.2), where the problem doesn't occur. I also tested in MacOS 10.5.5/Chrome 83.0.4103.116, and the problem doesn't occur (all 3 tests - Window...

Question I answered a question that was deleted, then undeleted, and my answer disappeared
Yesterday I answered this question. This morning, when I visited site, the question has disappeared, so my guess is that it was deleted. But now I saw that it was undeleted (I initially thought that it was posted again, but I don't think that's the case because my vote is still there), but it h...

Answer A: How can I write an egrep (grep -E) regexp that matches lines containing two stanzas in arbitrary order?
> Can that even be done without having to repeat either or resorting to more advanced processing than pure regular expressions I don't think it can. If you don't want to repeat `x1=y2` and `c5=d6`, you'll have to use more advanced features, such as lookaheads: grep -P "^(?=([^;]+; )x1=y2)(?...

Comment Post #278540 In regex, parentheses create a capturing group (which means that anything that matches the expression inside them becomes a separate group). My guess is that, when a group is present, only its contents are kept and the rest are ignored/removed - I couldn't find any info about that in the docs, though...

Answer A: Can regex be used to check if input conforms to a very strict subset of HTML?
tl;dr Although it can be done with regex (and work for "most" cases), I still prefer to use a parser. Long answer I'd use something such as `DOMParser` to do the job: ```javascript let validTags = ['p', 'span', 'br', 'i', 'b', 'u']; let validAttribs = ['style', 'href']; function vali...

Answer A: Function call; `this` gets bound to unexpected value
This MDN link might help to explain that: > When a function is called as a method of an object, its `this` is set to the object the method is called on. Which is your first example (calling `obj.a()`). But the link above also mentions that "this behavior is not at all affected by how or where t...

Answer A: Why don't format specifiers work with lists, dictionaries and other objects?
When you use the variable without any format specifier (`print(f'{variable}')`), internally its `str` method is called. Considering your `Test` class, it already has this method: ```python class Test: def init(self, valor): self.valor = valor def str(self): print('c...
