Say I have a few strings, such as:
N00E001
N00W001
N00E002
What would be the best regex to find both groups of numbers in each string?
I'm not the best with regex. Here's what i'm currently working with: (\\d+)[W|E](\\d+)
.
"(\d+)[W|E](\d+)"
would also match "N00|001"
.
So
"(\d+)[WE](\d+)"
should do fine.
If you have always the exact same format, you could use a more restrictive regex :
"\A[NS]\d{2}[WE]\d{3}\Z"
This would match :
The whole match should be the complete string. "Location N00W001"
wouldn't match, for example.
import re
strings = ["N00E001", "N00W001", "N00E002"]
pattern = re.compile("\A[NS]\d{2}[WE]\d{3}\Z")
print all(pattern.match(string) for string in strings)
# True
