This is part of the "You Found a Match: All about Regular Expressions" series.
Do you…
• work with structured output from command-line programs?
• rename files with filenames that have a set pattern?
• need to perform programmatic matching for transforming source code?
• need to be able to parse ad hoc textual data, matching and extracting data using patterns?
If so, this is for you!
In this series, we talk about regular expressions and the re module in Python. We cover everything you need to know to be an effective user of this powerful tool!
Goals
Gain familiarity with Regular Expressions
Understand how to use regular expressions to specify, identify, and extract high patterned textual data.
Get introduced to the use of regular expressions for these purposes.
See examples of them used, and see an overview of the fundamental rules, understand their general structure, see advanced features and use-cases and develop a process for designing effective regular expressions.
See how regular expressions can be used effectively from Python using re from the standard library.
