New tutorial: Regular expressions - No Fluff Just Stuff

New tutorial: Regular expressions

Posted by: Lincoln Baxter III on September 18, 2012

Do you love regular expressions as much as I do?

Well even if you don’t, I am pleased to announce a new tutorial: “OCPsoft’s guide to Regular Expressions.” As part of an ongoing initiative to promote awareness of regular expressions, and how they are used both as a general technology, but also specifically as applied to the Java programming language, we will be continuing to add new example-based guides to this course.

Please feel free to post questions and comments if there are topics or specific problems that you would like to see addressed. We will do our best to answer your questions and share the knowledge!

Check out the tutorial.

Enjoy!
