I am trying to create an array of things to match in a description line. So I cant ignore them later on in my script. Below is a sample script that I have been working on, on the side.
Basically I am trying to take a bunch of strings and match it against a bunch of other strings.
AKA: asdf or asfs or wrtw in string = true continue with script if not print this.
import re
ignorelist = ['^test', '(.*)set']
def guess(a):
     for ignore in ignorelist:
             if re.match(ignore, a):
                     return('LOSE!')
             else:
                     return('WIN!')
a = raw_input('Take a guess: ')
print guess(a)
Thanks
