I did part 2 live with the python interactive shell. I deleted all the stuff where I was just exploring ideas.

part 1:

import re

def multiply_and_add(data: "str") -> int:
    digit_matches = re.findall(r"mul\(\d{0,3},\d{0,3}\)", data)
    result = 0
    for _ in digit_matches:
        first = _.split("(")[1].split(")")[0].split(",")[0]
        second = _.split("(")[1].split(")")[0].split(",")[1]
        result += int(first) * int(second)

    return result

with open("input") as file:
    data = file.read()


answer = multiply_and_add(data)
print(answer)

part 2:

>>> import solution2
<re.Match object; span=(647, 651), match='do()'>
>>> from solution2 import *
>>> split_on_dont = data.split("don't()")
>>> valid = []
>>> valid.append(split_on_dont[0])
>>> for substring in split_on_dont[1:]:
...     subsubstrings = substring.split("do()", maxsplit=1)
...     for subsubstring in subsubstrings[1:]:
...             valid.append(subsubstring)
...
>>> answer = 0
>>> for _ in valid:
...     answer += multiply_and_add(_)
...
>>> answer
