Synopsis

The aim of Practical Usage of Regular Expressions is to provide a graduated introduction to regular expressions (regexes) and to show many practical examples of their use. Although, for simplicity, this book discusses the Microsoft® .NET®-based flavour (implementation), the concepts apply (at least at the introductory and intermediate level) to most regex flavours. Even complex constructs are explained clearly with schematic diagrams and appropriate examples. The clear structure, many illustrative examples, useful regexes and syntax summary make the book ideal as reference. The comprehensive worked example gives beginners a painless introduction to regexes and explains all needed concepts, except for the most advanced applications. The reader exercises (with solutions) also make the book ideal as tutorial. Although concise, the book provides entry- and intermediate-level regex users with detailed reference material. More than 100 practical examples augment the text content.This book is based on my more comprehensive book of the same Regex series but devoid of the translation environment-specific content.This second edition describes how regexes can be included in programming languages (examples are shown in C#, Perl and Python as proxies).
