Python regex for MD5 hash

Question

I've come up with:

re.findall("([a-fA-F\d]*)", data) 

but it's not very fool proof, is there a better way to grab all MD5-hash codes?

Answer 1

Well, since md5 is just a string of 32 hex digits, about all you could add to your expression is a check for "32 digits", perhaps something like this?

re.findall(r"([a-fA-F\d]{32})", data)
