combine two assignments in one line and pep8 style python code

Question

  email = re.search('(.*?)-+(.*?)-+', line).group(1)
  password = re.search('(.*?)-+(.*?)-+', line).group(2)
  user_data.write("%s\t%s\n" % (email, password))

how to combine the first and second line into one line?

another question:

email = re.search("[a-zA-Z0-9.!#$%&'*+-/=?\^_`{|}~-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(?:\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*", line)

how should I split the line into two lines?

If you want to ask another question, ask another question. Don't edit more questions into this one. — Gareth Latty, Jun 16 '12 at 13:38
And yes, [the regex required to correctly parse an email address is incredibly complex](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/703060/valid-email-address-regular-expression). You are better off protecting against obvious user error and going from there. — Gareth Latty, Jun 16 '12 at 13:39
@young001: Someone edited your question to correct your spelling and you edited it back? What does the word "combile" mean? — Joel Cornett, Jun 16 '12 at 14:03

You can use groups():

email, password = re.search('(.*?)-+(.*?)-+', line).groups()
