splitting a string with 2 different delimiters

[Skaperen]

@BamBi25

i modified the test string:

import re
string = "XfooYbarXbooYfar"
regex = re.compile('^(X[^Y]+)(Y[^X]+)$')
final2 = []
m = regex.match(string)
[final2.append(items) for items in m.group(1, 2)]
print(final2)

which seems to have a problem:

Output:
t2a/forums /home/forums 15> cat -n foo.py
     1	import re
     2	string = "XfooYbarXbooYfar"
     3	regex = re.compile('^(X[^Y]+)(Y[^X]+)$')
     4	final2 = []
     5	m = regex.match(string)
     6	[final2.append(items) for items in m.group(1, 2)]
     7	print(final2)
