# The string you want to find a pattern within
test_string = 'Hello greppers!'

# This is a simple one which finds "Hello"
pattern = re.compile(r'Hello')

# This locates and returns all the occurences of the pattern
# within the test_string
match = pattern.finditer(test_string)

# Outputs all the ocurrences which were returned as 
# as match objects
for match in matches:
  print(match)
