Regular expressions in Dynamo

Packages
10

Here is the slimmest module I could come up with:

import re			##Import for re or Regular Expressions
###INPUTS (Two Inputs- 0 and 1- ad inputs to python node to correspond with th [+] button)
StrList=IN[0]		##Simple list of items to match
regexExp=IN[1]		##Regexp string to match 
					##see https://docs.python.org/3.3/howto/regex.html "Regular expressions in dynamo" and 
					##https://regex101.com for regular expressions 101 testing
##OUTPUT
Outlist = []		##Outlist TRUE if match is find for each item in list
###Initialize Regexp
Regex = re.compile(regexExp, re.IGNORECASE)

###The actual RegExp compare for each item in the list
for item in StrList: ## For each item in the list run a match 
	Outlist.append ( Regex.match(item) is not None)	##If match is not NONE then it is a match (true) - else (false)- append that to the list for each item

OUT=Outlist		##Set output to results

I appreciate all the coded modules but sometimes I just want the how-to nuggets…
