Heya,

Is there any particular reason why you need to use re?

If you're using Python 2.3 or greater, the sets module might be easier
to deal with here:

>>> from sets import Set
>>> a = Set([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14])
>>> b = Set([2,3,4,7,8,12,13])
>>> b.issubset(a)
True
>>> b = Set([1,2,5,14])
>>> b.issubset(a)
True
>>> b = Set([3,7,23,200])
>>> b.issubset(a)
False

Sets are unsorted, I'm uncertain if that's a requirement for you.

Hope this helps.
