| Note | A regular expression, often called a
pattern, is an expression that describes a set of
strings. They are usually used to give a concise description of a
set, without having to list all elements. For example, the set
containing the three strings Handel,
Händel, and Haendel
can be described by the pattern H(ä|ae?)ndel (or
alternatively, it is said that the pattern
H(ä|ae?)ndelmatches each of the three
strings) wikipedia |
