[Tutor] getting a result from an if condition

[Tino Dai]

Hi Everybody,

     I'm having some problems with get an if block to work.

import re

regex=re.compile('(some expression)')

# What I'm trying to get to work
if (m=regex.search('some long string')):
      print m.groups()

- The thing that isn't working is the m=regex .... in the if line. Is this
possible in python?

Thanks,
Tino
