What are () (parentheses) are for in regex python
<p>I searched in all the internet and didnt get a good answer on this thing.
What parentheses in python are stand for? its very wierd..
For example, if i do:</p>

<pre><code>re.split(r'(/s*)', "ho from there")
</code></pre>

<p>its will give me a list of separate words with the spaces between that... how does its happening?</p>
