How to parse out both single line and multiline in regex?

@cortez.connelly 

To parse out both single line and multiline text using regular expressions, you can use the re.DOTALL flag in Python's regex module. This flag allows the . symbol to match any character, including newline characters.

Here's an example of how to use the re.DOTALL flag to parse out both single line and multiline text:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
14
15

import re

text = '''This is a single line text.
This is a multiline text.
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3'''

# Parse out single line text
single_line_text = re.findall(r'This is a single line text.', text)
print(single_line_text)

# Parse out multiline text
multiline_text = re.findall(r'Line d+', text, re.DOTALL)
print(multiline_text)

In this example, the first regex pattern matches the single line text "This is a single line text." and the second regex pattern matches all lines that start with "Line" followed by a digit in the multiline text. The re.DOTALL flag is used to ensure that the dot . matches newline characters as well.

You can adjust the regex patterns as needed to match different parts of the text you want to parse out.
