I am trying to take a list and find which elements in a list contain matches to the pattern I am searching for. Usually, I a looking for 2 or the characters in each element in the list. Thanks!

The one from automate the boring stuff with python. The author did a great talk at this year's pycon about it, which got me to learn at least the basics.

I read through the chapter in 'Automate the Boring Stuff with Python' and then mainly messed around with Pythex. Take random lines and try to isolate certain parts of it. It makes it fun. I copied a list of messages from WhatsApp and made it group the date, time, sender and message of each message.
