如何显示包含这些字符的所有单词?

如果你不想有两个问题:

for word in file('myfile.txt').read().split():
    if 'x' in word and 'z' in word:
        print word

import re
for word in re.findall(r"\w+", mystring):
    if 'x' in word and 'z' in word:
        print word

>>> import re
>>> pattern = re.compile('\b(\w*z\w*x\w*|\w*x\w*z\w*)\b')
>>> document = '''Here is some data that needs
... to be searched for words that contain both z
... and x.  Blah xz zx blah jal akle asdke asdxskz
... zlkxlk blah bleh foo bar'''
>>> print pattern.findall(document)
['xz', 'zx', 'asdxskz', 'zlkxlk']

我只想指出,与简单的 string methods-based solution provided by Wooble .

我们来计时,好吗?

在上运行此脚本 plaintext copy of Moby Dick Project Gutenberg ,在Python2.6上,我得到以下计时:

在Python3.1中(使用 2to3 为了修复打印语句),我得到以下计时:

我们可以看到,基于正则表达式的函数的运行时间往往是Python2.6中基于字符串方法的函数的两倍,而Python3中的运行时间则是后者的三倍以上。对于一次性解析来说,时间差很小(没有人会错过这些毫秒),但是对于必须多次调用函数的情况,基于字符串方法的方法既简单又快速。

我不知道这台发电机的性能,但对我来说是这样的:

from __future__ import print_function
import string

bookfile = '11.txt' # Alice in Wonderland
hunted = 'az' # in your case xz but there is none of those in this book

with open(bookfile) as thebook:
    # read text of book and split from white space
    print('\n'.join(set(word.lower().strip(string.punctuation)
                    for word in thebook.read().split()
                    if all(c in word.lower() for c in hunted))))
""" Output:
