Given a string, I want to find all the substrings consisting of two or three '4,'.
For example, given '1,4,3,2,1,1,4,4,3,2,1,4,4,3,2,1,4,4,4,3,2,' I want to get ['4,4,', '4,4,', '4,4,4'].
str_ = '1,4,4,3,2,1,1,4,4,3,2,1,4,4,3,2,1,4,4,3,2,'
m = re.findall(r"(4,){2,3}", str_)
what I get is : ['4,', '4,', '4,', '4,']
what's wrong?
It seems to me that the parenthesis wrapping '4,' is interpreted as grouping but not telling Python '4' and ',' should occur together. However, I don't know how to do this.
