I'm new to python. I have a long string that has several numbers in it. I only need the numbers that matches the XX XX XXXXXX form (ex. 15 09 066456). Any help is appreciated.

I'm not allowed to comment, so posting the possible solution(using regex) here, python 3.x
import re
text='15 09 066456'
pattern = r'\d{2}\s\d{2}\s\d{6}'
match= re.findall(pattern,text)
print(match)

1its working good but it only outputs only one XX XX XXXXXX code. How can I get more? Edit: Figured it out: `pattern = r'\d{2}\s\d{2}\s\d{6}' match = re.findall(pattern,text) print(match)` – xrtxn Oct 13 '20 at 17:01

1@Hackry As already suggested by you, re.findall will do the needful to find all the matching patterns. Same Edit is done in the answer above. Thanks – kartik sharma Oct 14 '20 at 08:40
