a re problem

[cheng]

hi,all, i try to replace every target word found in the text

for target in splitText:
if stopwords.find(target) >= 0 :
text = re.sub(r'\b%s\b','',text) &target

when i using the statment:

text = re.sub(r'\b%s\b','',text) &target

get error : unsupported operand type(s) for &: 'str' and 'str'

is it some idea that can modity it and make it work?
