Regular Expression Pocket Reference 2nd Edition
This handy little book offers programmers a complete
overview of the syntax and semantics of regular expressions
that are at the heart of every text-processing application.
Ideal as a quick reference, Regular Expression Pocket
Reference covers the regular expression APIs for Perl 5.8,
Ruby (including some upcoming 1.9 features),
Java, PHP, .NET
and C#, Python, vi, JavaScript, and the PCRE regular
expression libraries.
This concise and easy-to-use reference puts a very powerful
tool for manipulating text and data right at your
fingertips. Composed of a mixture of symbols and text,
regular expressions can be an outlet for creativity, for
brilliant programming, and for the elegant solution. Regular
Expression Pocket Reference offers an introduction to
regular expressions, pattern matching, metacharacters, modes
and constructs, and then provides separate sections for each
of the language APIs, with complete regex listings
including:
Supported metacharacters for each language API
Regular expression classes and interfaces for Ruby, Java,
.NET, and C#
Regular expression operators for Perl 5.8
Regular expression module objects and functions for Python
Pattern-matching functions for PHP and the vi editor
Pattern-matching methods and objects for JavaScript
Unicode Support for each of the languages
With plenty of examples and other resources, Regular
Expression Pocket Reference summarizes the complex rules for
performing this critical text-processing function, and
presents this often-confusing topic in a friendly and
well-organized format. This guide makes an ideal on-the-job
companion.
