thankyou so much
Very good introduction, thanks for the writeup. My only beef with it is that it does not explain the \b metacharacter, which is both one of the most confusing and one of the most useful tokens in regex. Confusing because it does not match a character at all, in fact it matches nothing (like ^ and $) but it does so only at the places where a word ends or begins, which is why it’s so useful…
I didn't know about
\b
, thanks for sharing it.The title of this post was one that (for me) didn't inspire excitement so much as it felt like "I've been developing for 14 years, I should probably know regex better", but this was actually more exciting than I expected. Helpful and concise explanations plus tons of examples made this easy to grok, which felt great. Being able to teach isn't easy. Awesome job on this.
Very clear explanation on how to work with regex. Great article!
Best tutorial I have read on regex! Would have been nice if at the end you would have thrown some harder regex's as examples just for practising what we have just learned.
WOW!
I'd love to have had this article way earlier in my career!!
Easy to follow, clear examples; really demystifying.
Stand up applause!
Thank you so much.
A good refresh on Regex. Thanks. And you haven't lived until you've done back references in Regex.
