Verify all occurrences `re.match` in my codes as very likely wanted `re.fullmatch` instead

[Benjamin-Loison]

On my phone, my laptop, my computer, LemnosLife VPS and OverClock3000.

https://docs.python.org/3.13/library/re.html#re.fullmatch

help(re.fullmatch)

Output:

``` Help on function fullmatch in module re: fullmatch(pattern, string, flags=0) Try to apply the pattern to all of the string, returning a Match object, or None if no match was found. ```

https://docs.python.org/3.13/library/re.html#re.match

help(re.match)

Output:

``` Help on function match in module re: match(pattern, string, flags=0) Try to apply the pattern at the start of the string, returning a Match object, or None if no match was found. ```

The only difference is at the start and to all of the string.

Pyzo states:

Python 3.12.3 (main, Sep 11 2024, 14:17:37) on linux (64 bits).

on my Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon Framework 13.

import re

re.match('\\d', '1 dollars')

<re.Match object; span=(0, 1), match='1'>

re.fullmatch('\\d', '1 dollars') is None

True

In my head as far as I remember there were re.match and re.findall/re.search, so by default all re.match should be replaced with re.fullmatch.

Quickly verifying for each occurrence if the replacement makes sense would be nice.

git commit -a

Replace `re.match` with `re.fullmatch`

See [Benjamin-Loison/cpython/issues/43](https://github.com/Benjamin-Loison/cpython/issues/43).

Would be nice to commit using the clipboard, see Benjamin_Loison/git/issues/84.

Should verify that only commit such replacements, not pending changes containing secrets for instance.

# Should maybe be `re.fullmatch`, see [Benjamin-Loison/cpython/issues/43](https://github.com/Benjamin-Loison/cpython/issues/43).
