Find something after a key words

Question

I want to find something after a key word or sentence
example: here is my index number 123456
I want to return 123456

Answer 1

So you want to find 123456 inside of other text? Sounds like a regular expression job.

Can you provide existing code or sample input, what keyword is being searched for and what output you want if any?

Answer 2

I don’t have a regex solution, but python find might be more appropriate, depending on the context.

s = "I want to find index number123456"
s2 = "index number"

i=s.find(s2)+len(s2)
print ("Location of end of index number:",i)
print (s[i:])

EDIT: Autocorrect had made “regex” into “reflex”

Answer 3

I mean that the regex may be for example 'index number'
so the result should be what come after 'index number' which is 123456
😊

Answer 4

something like this: r' here is my index number (\d{,6})' and then using match.group(0)
