Python, Regular Expression Postcode search

Question

I am trying to use regular expressions to find a UK postcode within a string.

I have got the regular expression working inside RegexBuddy, see below:

Answer 1

Try

import re
re.findall("[A-Z]{1,2}[0-9][A-Z0-9]? [0-9][ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2}", x)

You don't need the \b.
