[英]How can I find the number of occurences of a substring in a string in python?
I have a substring 'G^ATTC'
and I want to find the number of time it occurs in a string like 'ATCGCGATTC'
but I cannot because of '^'
.我有一个 substring
'G^ATTC'
,我想找到它出现在像'ATCGCGATTC'
这样的字符串中的次数,但我不能因为'^'
。
I used re.findall
, but the result is always 0
.我使用
re.findall
,但结果始终0
。
This is because in Regex, the "^" character means "the start of the line."这是因为在 Regex 中,“^”字符表示“行首”。 Related to this, "$" means "the end of a line"
与此相关,“$”表示“行尾”
So, when it's searching for "G^ATTC", it would never match anything, because you're saying the "G" comes before the start of the line (which doesn't even make sense).所以,当它搜索“G^ATTC”时,它永远不会匹配任何东西,因为你说“G”出现在行首之前(这甚至没有意义)。
The way to fix your regex is to include a "\" to escape the "^".修复正则表达式的方法是包含一个“\”来转义“^”。 This tells regex to treat the "^" as a character instead of the start of the line.
这告诉正则表达式将“^”视为字符而不是行首。
So, change it to "G\^ATTC"所以,把它改成“G\^ATTC”
maybe something like this:也许是这样的:
import re
txt = "ATCGCG1ATTCAAAAAAAAAAAAAG4ATTC"
substring = 'G^ATTC'
x = re.findall(substring.replace('^','.'), txt) # ['G1ATTC', 'G4ATTC']
print ("pattern {} occurs {} times".format(substring,len(x)))
output: output:
pattern G^ATTC occurs 2 times
