Regular Expression Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach

Whether you are using Perl, PHP, Python, grep, sed, or any other program that uses regular expressions you will eventually have a problem trying to figure out just how to do something. That is where this book comes in handy. If you need to resolve a peculiar programming problem then this is the book you will want by your side. If the expression doesn’t work, or doesn’t provide the correct output this is the best place to turn to figure out what is going on. Or, if you want to do something different then you might want to turn here first to look for ideas on how to attack the problem. Since this is a problem and solution oriented approach it provides a solution in Perl, PHP, Shell Script, and Vim. Regular Expression Recipes: A Problem-Solutions Approach is a highly recommended resource and does an excellent job of describing in plain English how to define the problem, how to work on it, and how to get the results you want. This is the ultimate guide to regular expressions.
