Regular expression: cannot find 1st number in a string

[Pavel_47]

Hello,

Here is test string:

aaa = '   2jhjh 890 jjk'

Here is how I try to find 1st number in aaa (2 in this case):

bbb = re.match('\d', aaa)

What I finally get:

Output:
>>> type(bbb)
<class 'NoneType'>

Any suggestions ?

Thanks.
