[regex-tutorial]: Part 3
Hi everyone,
this is the third part, which was the most difficult to translate. Ask
Marck, without him it wouldn't be like that. Thank you again, Marck
:-) There are some very long regular expressions in this part. They
might be wrapped due to layout reasons. Sorry for that!
The fourth part will be delayed because I won't be at home for a week
and no chance to work on part 4. So, sorry for that, but you have to be
patient. Anyway, I think part 3 is quite difficult and you will need
some time to work through.
Good luck.
===Start
5. Special Elements - Part 1
Everything we've had so far hasn't been too difficult. But this
chapter is heavy stuff. Please, do me a favour: read this chapter
carefully. Be patient! Try everything with the regex tester; get
familiar with the elements in this chapter: they are the essential for
creating proper regex. Although this may be a bit more complicated
than the chapters before, it is certainly more interesting ;-)
5.1 Quantifier
We already know to define patterns for matching single characters,
groups of characters, character classes or ranges of characters. We
can use alternatives in our search patterns. But something of
absolutely vital interest is missing - the ability to define
repetitions.
You remember the example that was a regex to search for the European
formatted date:
"\d\d\.\d\d\.\d\d\d\d"
For every single digit we wrote "\d". Isn't there another way, much
simpler than repeating the metacharacter as often as the regex wants
to find the character? Yes, there is! There are quantifiers!
+ * ? are the most important quantifiers.
The "+"-character means that the character preceding the plus-sign has
to appear at least once at the specific point of the string. "fo+l"
matches 'fool', 'fol' and 'fol'. "Re:\s+", for example, means that
at least one whitespace has to follow 'Re:' to be matched.
I hear some of you experts: yes, the usage of quantifiers is not only
restricted to characters. You can use them to repeat metacharacters,
character classes and some other elements we are yet to learn. ;-)
The star "*" represents any number of occurrences of the preceding
character at the specific point in the string. 'Any' really means
'any', even if the character doesn't appear at all. Ooops, what's the
use of that?
Well, let's have a look at the following example: "Re:\s*\w+"
Huh, that already looks as cryptic as those regex the experts use .
What does this regex mean?
Search for a 'Re' followed by a colon. Then any number of whitespace
characters may appear - even no spaces at all. What for? In proper
subject lines there should be a space. But imagine we would like to
match any subject string even if someone modified it manually and
deleted the space. We have to tell the regex that there might or might
not be a space. Anyway, both possibilities should be found. This can
be done with the star as quantifier. Well, finally, there has to be at
least one alphanumeric character.
Caution: the meaning of this quantifier is sometimes misinterpreted.
Look at the following task: a regex has to be defined that matches
only lines of a string with only digits in it. One solution I saw was:
"^[0-9]*$"
But this regex matches void lines as well; the star stands for 'no
digit' as well as for 'any digit'. So the regex machine returns TRUE
when no digit is in a line. If you want to make sure that there is at
least one digit in a line you have to use the plus-sign: "^[0-9]+$".
The question mark means that the preceding character may appear once
or not at all at the specific point of the string. A bit like the star
only that the number of occurrence has the maximum '1'. "h..?s"
matches 'hers', 'hips' and 'his' or 'has'. Within 'house' it matches
'hous'; within 'hose' it matches 'hos'.
There is another way to define repetitions: "{x,y}" This is a way to
explicitly define how many repetitions of the preceding characters you
want. In this formula 'x' denotes the minimum number and 'y' the
maximum number necessary for the preceding character. "\d{2,4}" means
that only two to four digits in a row are matched.
If you omit the second number 'y' but leave the comma in the curly
brackets "{x,}", then there is no upper limit and the minimum is
x-times the preceding character. "\w{3,}" matches any string with at
least three word-characters.
If you omit not only the second number but the comma as well "{x}",
then this means the exact number of appearances of the preceding
character. "\d{6}" matches exactly six digits. This quantifier gives
us a new way to write our regex that matches European formatted dates
: "\d{2}\.\d{2}\.\d{4}"
The three quantifiers I introduced at the beginning of this chapter
are simply special ways to write one of the following regex:
{0,1} = ?
{1,} = +
{0,} = *
Before I can tell you more about quantifiers and what has to be kept
in mind when using them, I have to introduce parentheses (round
brackets) as a grouping device.

Many like myself don't believe in the routine use of HTML mail. Too much overhead for the benefits in the overwhelming majority of circumstances. I've seen it abused and misused too much. HTML mail used in what I consider to be the appropriate context would need a specialised HTML editor to be composed. Just my opinion though.
