match string to list of regex patterns if statement

Question

I am new to Python and trying to match a string to a list of regexes.

import re
str = 'foo'
list1 = ['a', 'b', 'c']
listofRegex = [r'some*regex[.]pattern', r'some*regex[.]pattern2']

if str in list1 or re.match(rex in listofRegex, str):
    ...

Is this possible?

Answer 1

You can concatenate your expressions with the or operator | . You can then test your sentence/word on all of them together.

import re

r1 = r'lo'
r2 = r'hel.'

listofregex = [r1, r2]
regcombined = re.compile('|'.join(listofregex))
allmatched = regcombined.findall('hello')
