Ignorecase doesn't not seem to work in your example.

You have added re.IGNORECASE but your results only returned capitalised Treehouse. Why doesn't your example return all instances of treehouse.

in general I believe .ignorecase is used to compare and not to return. I dont think it will change any string in print out but if you use it for comparing in for boolean purposes the case of the string will not matter only that the letters are the same
