Non-Printable Characters (Page 5)

Regular expressions can also match non-printable characters using special sequences. Here are some common examples: \t: Tab character (ASCII 0x09) \r: Carriage return (ASCII 0x0D) \n: Line feed (ASCII 0x0A) \a: Bell (ASCII 0x07) \e: Escape (ASCII 0x1B) \f: Form feed (ASCII 0x0C) \v: Vertical tab (ASCII 0x0B) Keep in mind that Windows text files use "\r\n" to terminate lines, while UNIX text files use "\n". Hexadecimal and Unicode Characters You can include any character in your regex usin

Special Characters (Page 4)

To go beyond matching literal text, regex engines reserve certain characters for special functions. These are known as metacharacters. The following characters have special meanings in most regex flavors discussed in this tutorial: [ \ ^ $ . | ? * + ( ) If you need to use any of these characters as literals in your regex, you must escape them with a backslash (\). For instance, to match "1+1=2", you would write the regex as: 1\+1=2 Without the backslash, the plus sign would be interpreted as a q

Literal Characters (Page 3)

The simplest regular expressions consist of literal characters. A literal character is a character that matches itself. For example, the regex «a» will match the first occurrence of the character "a" in a string. Consider the string "Jack is a boy": this pattern will match the "a" after the "J". It’s important to note that the regex engine doesn’t care where the match occurs within a word unless instructed otherwise. If you want to match entire words, you’ll need to use word boundaries, a concep

Different Regular Expression Engines (Page 2)

A regular expression engine is a software component that processes regex patterns, attempting to match them against a given string. Typically, you won’t interact directly with the engine. Instead, it operates behind the scenes within applications and programming languages, which invoke the engine as needed to apply the appropriate regex patterns to your data or files. Variations Across Regex Engines As is often the case in software development, not all regex engines are created equal. Different
