A custom character set >>> re.findall( r'[0-9!@#$%^&*()].*?', 'abcdeforghitjrkfgn0129374856ABCDKRF*!&@&#$^()' ) ['0', '1', '2', '9', '3', '7', '4', '8', '5', '6', '*', '!', '&', '@', '&', '#', '$', '^', '(', ')']

I went with Greedy matching, but who knows I'm not a site that is specifically providing answers.

Neither \w or \W would work in this case. A custom set would probably be the way to go. \S would likely work granted spaces were to be excluded.

Not sure a-z, 0-9 will match on \w but for special characters you need \W

I'll go greedy on this one. It matches any character. So, it covers both w and W
