re.sub用法

re.sub用法

re.sub用于替换字符串中的匹配项。
下面一个例子将字符串中的空格 ’ ’ 替换成 ‘-’ ：

import re
text = "JGood is a handsome boy, he is cool, clever, and so on..."
print(re.sub(r'\s+', '-', text))
输出：JGood-is-a-handsome-boy,-he-is-cool,-clever,-and-so-on...

re.sub的函数原型为：re.sub(pattern, repl, string, count)
其中第二个函数是替换后的字符串；本例中为’-’
第四个参数指替换个数。默认为0，表示每个匹配项都替换。

把“ r’\s+’ ” 替换为“ r’is\s+’” 结果是把原句中的is改为了-。

import re
text = "JGood is a handsome boy, he is cool, clever, and so on..."
print re.sub(r'is\s+', '-', text)
输出：JGood -a handsome boy, he -cool, clever, and so on...

改为 re.sub(r’\s+,\s+’, ', ', text)，无改变。

import re
text = "JGood is a handsome boy, he is cool, clever, and so on..."
print(re.sub(r'\s+\.', '.', text))
输出：JGood is a handsome boy, he is cool, clever, and so on...

改为 re.sub(r’\s+,\s+’, ', ', text)，boy后加三个逗号，三个逗号没有少，是空格发生了变化，…y, , , h… 替换为**…y, , h…**。

import re
 text="JGood is a handsome boy, , , he is cool, clever, and so on..."
print(re.sub(r'\s+,\s+', ', ', text))
输出：JGood is a handsome boy,, , he is cool, clever, and so on...

在原句每个空格之前加了空格

text = "JGood is a handsome boy  , he is cool  , clever  , and so on..."
print(re.sub(r'\s+,\s+', ',', text))
输出：“JGood is a handsome boy,he is cool,clever,and so on...”

re.sub(pattern, repl, string, count)中PATTERN的作用，找到text中与patern所匹配的形式，把text中与patern所匹配的形式以外的用repl代替。
