Hi,
I don't know very much about regular expression and
I'm wondering how to extract the numeric value 0.693 from the
following text.

" 1 EUR =<b> 0.693 GBP </b>"

Thanks.

Assuming the values you're looking for are always between html bold
elements and will always have at least 1 digit both left and right of
the decimal point, the following should do it:

<b> (\d+\.\d+).*</b>

0.693 would be in match.groups[1]

.
