Ive got a regex that is meant to find all multilined comments and docstrings, so far it is currently only returning group 1 from the regex, what I want is the full match and corresponding line number, what would i have to change to find get these results?
code -
match = r'''(['"])\1\1[\d\D]*?\1{3}'''
textfile = open(file, 'r')
filetext = textfile.read()
textfile.close()
matches = re.findall(match, filetext)
print matches
example file on which I would be running this code on -
a = '\ttesting this file!'
b = "abc"
print a
def trigger():
a = b'\r\n'
b = "\t"

class A:
"""
dsadasd
dsadas

def new():
"""
dsadas
:return:

What the function returns -
['"', '"', '"']
