match pattern

[rudikk00]

Hi all,

I remember perl has a match function =~/H/ --> which searches if there
is "H" pattern in line. Is there a reasonable analog of it in python?

thanks!

It's called a regular expression, which can be matched or searched in a
string. Take a look at the module "re" in python.
