Or maybe I'm missing something? When I check work it says: Bummer: Didn't get the right match. Got "auoesua".
import re
def first_number(string1):
search1 = re.search(r'\d', string1)
return search1
def numbers(count, string):
return re.search(r'\w' * 7 , string)

In the second challenge the objective is to search for numbers, and you’re supposed to be returning a __ amount of numbers. So you want to switch out the w for a d (so that your regex is checking for digits). And you want to switch the hardcoded 7 with the variable count
.
def numbers(count, string):
return re.search(r'\d' * count , string)
