Negate the ^(```) and repeat its element

Suppose such a markdown file



In [86]: !cat formatCase.md 

Some content in the head

```
>>> ':20,.2f'.format(18446744073709551616.0)
'18,446,744,073,709,551,616.00'
```

When formatting an integer, include the comma after the width:

```
>>> ':20,d'.format(18446744073709551616)
'18,446,744,073,709,551,616'
```

some content on the foot.


I'd like to add language type to ```



In [88]: c = open("new_format.md").read()

new_c = re.sub(r"```([^`]+)```", r"```python1```",c)


This solution works,

One more step, if there exist situation to make typo error inside ```, one ` or two `` occurs,



then, should replace [^`] with ^(```).



tried alternatively



r"```(^(```))+```"
r"```(?:^(?:```))+```"
r"```((?:^(?:```))+)```"


It does not perform correctly.



How could get it done to consider ^(```) situation.
