✦ Synopsis

I have had occasion to require regular expressions in my code and it has always been a matter of trial and error, or looking online for something that should work. Some books have a chapter dedicated to regular expressions but I have always found them confusing.
Enter Jeffrey Friedl and this excellent text. This man is a superb teacher. He not only explains well but also preempts every doubt I could have as I read his work.
His examples are thorough.
My only hope is that he writes other books.
