result is a single string; if there are multiple arguments, the result is a
tuple with one item per argument. Without arguments, *group1* defaults to zero
(the whole match is returned). If a *groupN* argument is zero, the corresponding
return value is the entire matching string; if it is in the inclusive range
[1..99], it is the string matching the corresponding parenthesized group. If a
group number is negative or larger than the number of groups defined in the
pattern, an :exc:`IndexError` exception is raised. If a group is contained in a
return value is the entire matching string; if it is a positive integer, it is
the string matching the corresponding parenthesized group. If a group number is
negative or larger than the number of groups defined in the pattern, an
:exc:`IndexError` exception is raised. If a group is contained in a
part of the pattern that did not match, the corresponding result is ``None``.
If a group is contained in a part of the pattern that matched multiple times,
the last match is returned. ::
