regex (str or regular expression object) – String to be compiled into a regular expression, or a pre-
compiled regular expression object (e.g., from calling
re.compile
).
ignore (1D array_like (bool) or iterable (slices or ints), optional) – Indicate the positions to ignore when matching.
slice – Location where the regular expression matched.
Examples
>>> from skbio import Sequence
>>> s = Sequence('AATATACCGGTTATAA')
>>> for match in s.find_with_regex('(TATA+)'):
... match
... str(s[match])
slice(2, 6, None)
'TATA'
slice(11, 16, None)
'TATAA'
