import re my_string = 'Python is % always fun % to learn % and teach' print("The list is : " ) print(my_string) my_result = re.findall('\d*%', my_string) print("The resultant list is : ") print(my_result)
Output
The list is : Python is % always fun % to learn % and teach The resultant list is : ['%', '%', '%']
