                   Each

Requires all given :class:`ParseExpression` s to be found, but in any order. Expressions may be separated by whitespace.

May be constructed using the ``'&'`` operator.

Example:

   color = oneOf("RED ORANGE YELLOW GREEN BLUE PURPLE BLACK WHITE BROWN")
   shape_type = oneOf("SQUARE CIRCLE TRIANGLE STAR HEXAGON OCTAGON")
   integer = Word(nums)
   shape_attr = "shape:" + shape_type("shape")
   posn_attr = "posn:" + Group(integer("x") + ',' + integer("y"))("posn")
   color_attr = "color:" + color("color")
   size_attr = "size:" + integer("size")

   # use Each (using operator '&') to accept attributes in any order
   # (shape and posn are required, color and size are optional)
   shape_spec = shape_attr & posn_attr & Optional(color_attr) & Optional(size_attr)

   shape_spec.runTests('''
       shape: SQUARE color: BLACK posn: 100, 120
       shape: CIRCLE size: 50 color: BLUE posn: 50,80
       color:GREEN size:20 shape:TRIANGLE posn:20,40
       '''
       )

prints:

   shape: SQUARE color: BLACK posn: 100, 120
   ['shape:', 'SQUARE', 'color:', 'BLACK', 'posn:', ['100', ',', '120']]
   - color: BLACK
