This code seems working great on the sample!
Could someone kindly explain what it is doing? The regular expression here is kinda difficult for me...
Besides, I get error when I run this code.
I run it on a the sample file called "test1.txt" and get the following error.
Is that I have missed something? I have put in the filename already.
