Python中使用正则表达式，应该要养成创建编译后的正则表达式的习惯，使用方法如下：

#!/usr/bin/env python

import re

def run_re():
    pattern = 'ERROR'
    re_obj = re.compile(pattern)

    infile = open('/home/udb/jt.txt', 'r')
    match_count = 0
    lines = 0
    for line in infile:
        match = re_obj.search(line)
        if match:
            match_count += 1
        lines += 1
    return (lines, match_count)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    lines, match_count = run_re()
    print 'LINES--->', lines
    print 'MATCHES--->', match_count

常用的正则表达式方法有findall(), finditer(), match(), search()
