Hey there where ya goin’, not exactly knowin’, who says you have to call just one place home. He’s goin’ everywhere, B.J. McKay and his best friend Bear. He just keeps on movin’, ladies keep improvin’, every day is better than the last. New dreams and better scenes, and best of all I don’t pay property tax. Rollin’ down to Dallas, who’s providin’ my palace, off to New Orleans or who knows where. Places new and ladies, too, I’m B.J. McKay and this is my best friend Bear.

Ulysses, Ulysses — Soaring through all the galaxies. In search of Earth, flying in to the night. Ulysses, Ulysses — Fighting evil and tyranny, with all his power, and with all of his might. Ulysses — no-one else can do the things you do. Ulysses — like a bolt of thunder from the blue. Ulysses — always fighting all the evil forces bringing peace and justice to all.

Hong Kong Phooey, number one super guy. Hong Kong Phooey, quicker than the human eye. He’s got style, a groovy style, and a car that just won’t stop. When the going gets tough, he’s really rough, with a Hong Kong Phooey chop (Hi-Ya!). Hong Kong Phooey, number one super guy. Hong Kong Phooey, quicker than the human eye. Hong Kong Phooey, he’s fan-riffic!

@ -41,6 +41,79 @@ One of the advantages of perl regexes is reverse matching.
|
|||
|
||||
## The basics
|
||||
|
||||
### Fundamental structure and anchoring
|
||||
|
||||
Download the following [file](./assets/regex_03.txt) which is an American English dictionary we will use to test out some basic patterns.
|
||||
Fire up a terminal and find all words that contain the string `abba`.
|
||||
You already know how to do this with `grep`, nothing really special here.
|
||||
`grep 'abba' regex_03.txt` should give give you a list containing 16 words.
|
||||
Notice the color output in you terminal.
|
||||
|
||||
What if we only want the words containing `abba` but who *also* start with `s`?
|
||||
This can be done with the following line `grep 's.*abba' regex_03.txt`.
|
||||
You should have 6 matches left.
|
||||
How about the same ones, but they have to end with an `s`?
|
||||
You guessed it, `grep 's.*abba.*s' regex_03.txt`, get's the job done.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, what are those special characters?
|
||||
They are *like* [wildcards in bash](https://ryanstutorials.net/linuxtutorial/wildcards.php) but on steroids.
|
||||
In the example above, the `.` represents almost any character, and the `*` means as **many** times as we want.
|
||||
They are both very powerful, and broad, matching patterns that are part of the [fundamental structure](https://www.gnu.org/software/grep/manual/html_node/Fundamental-Structure.html#Fundamental-Structure) of regex.
|
||||
They work well but sometime we need to be a bit more precise, which we'll get to in a bit.
|
||||
|
||||
Second little example with the same list.
|
||||
What if we want all words with the letter `a` in them?
|
||||
Easy, `grep 'a' regex_03.txt` should do the trick but 52849 results are a bit much.
|
||||
Let's trim it back to only the words having `aa` in them?
|
||||
`grep 'aa' regex_03.txt` brings it down to 65 matches.
|
||||
Nice.
|
||||
Now, how about only the ones that *start* with `aa`?
|
||||
This can be done with an other core concept of regex called [anchoring](https://www.gnu.org/software/grep/manual/html_node/Anchoring.html#Anchoring) and can be done as such `grep '^aa' regex_03.txt`.
|
||||
Here the `^` signifies the **start** of the line.
|
||||
Last one, I promise, what if we want of those three only the ones with `s` at the end?
|
||||
Right, `grep '^aa.*s$' regex_03.txt` should do the trick where `$` means **ends** with.
|
||||
|
||||
### Character classes and bracket expansion
|
||||
|
||||
Let's find, in the following [file](./assets/regex_04.txt) all words starting with a capital case letter.
|
||||
This can be done in multiple ways.
|
||||
First we try one you *should* remember from your bandit days.
|
||||
Does `[a-zA-Z]` ring a bell?
|
||||
You used it to do ROT13 rotation somewhere around level 12.
|
||||
`grep '^[A-Z].*' regex_04.txt` greps out all words starting with a capital.
|
||||
Wonderful, but a bit too many words.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's limit it to only words that have punctuation in them.
|
||||
This, `grep '^[A-Z][[:alnum:]]*[[:punct:]].*' regex_04.txt`, which is *very* cryptic does the job.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's break it down a bit:
|
||||
|
||||
* `^[A-Z]` matches all capital letters
|
||||
* `[[:alnum:]]*` all letters and number, as many times as we want
|
||||
* `[[:punct:]]` matches any punctuation, but just **once**
|
||||
* `.*` matches almost any character as many times as we want
|
||||
|
||||
In the above pattern you see *two* different forms of character classes, the `[A-Z]` and the `[[:alnum:]]`.
|
||||
Worth noting is that you can negate an expansion by putting a `^` inside it as such `grep '^[^A-Z].*' regex_03.txt` (not I used the first list because the animals list has no words starting with a capital letter).
|
||||
This is basically the same as `grep '^[a-z].*' regex_03.txt`.
|
||||
|
||||
### The backslash character and special expressions
|
||||
|
||||
If we want to match only animals that contain multiple words we can use [special expressions](https://www.gnu.org/software/grep/manual/html_node/The-Backslash-Character-and-Special-Expressions.html#The-Backslash-Character-and-Special-Expressions).
|
||||
Have a look at the output of this grep pattern `grep '\s[[:alpha:]]*' regex_04.txt`.
|
||||
Here we notice we can select only parts of the lines too!
|
||||
A handy flag we can add to the `grep` command is `-o` which will only print the part that matches (in red).
|
||||
|
||||
If we only want single words coming out of the search we can do this like so `grep -o '\s[a-zA-Z]*\>' regex_04.txt`.
|
||||
Notice how it starts with an empty space?
|
||||
let's break this one down.
|
||||
|
||||
* `\s` matches whitespace
|
||||
* `[a-zA-Z]*` matches the entire alphabet as many times as we want
|
||||
* `\>` matches the end of the word (not really needed here)
