Compiled regular expression objects support the following methods and
attributes:

\begin{funcdesc}{match}{string\optional{\, pos}}
Return how many characters at the beginning of \var{string} match
the compiled regular expression. Return \code{-1} if the string
does not match the pattern (this is different from a zero-length
match!).
If zero or more characters at the beginning of \var{string} match
this regular expression, return a corresponding
\code{Match} object. Return \code{None} if the string does not
match the pattern; note that this is different from a zero-length

\begin{funcdesc}{search}{string\optional{\, pos}}
Return the first position in \var{string} that matches the regular

string matches the pattern (this is different from a zero-length
match anywhere!).
Scan through \var{string} looking for a location where this regular
expression produces a match. Return \code{None} if no
position in the string matches the pattern; note that this is
different from finding a zero-length match at some point in the string.
The optional second parameter has the same meaning as for the
\code{match} method.
