Regex to select all character between underscores

Question

I am trying to write a regular expression to select all characters between underscores. I end up with _([^_]+)_ but it does not match all the groups,

String : abc_bca_vag_hag_bag output : bca vag hag

can someone help with this?

Answer 1

I used split function and select every elements except first one and last one:

st = 'abc_bca_vag_hag_bag'
lis = st.split('_')[1:-1]
# output  ['bca', 'vag', 'hag']
