I'm trying to use a Python regex to find a mathematical expression in a string. The problem is that the forward slash seems to do something unexpected. I'd have thought that [\w\d\s+-/*]* would work for finding math expressions, but it finds commas too for some reason. A bit of experimenting reveals that forward slashes are the culprit. ...
Hiho everyone! :) I have an application, in which the user can insert a string into a textbox, which will be used for a String.Format output later. So the user's input must have a certain format: I would like to replace exactly one placeholder, so the string should be of a form like this: "Text{0}Text". So it has to contain at least on...
