In the spirit of polygenelubricants' efforts to do silly things with regular expressions, I currently try to get the .NET regex engine to multiplicate for me. This has, of course, no practical value and is meant as a purely theoretical exercise. So far, I've arrived at this monster, that should check if the number of 1s multiplied by t...

Hello, I have a problem with preg_match_all. While preg_match does reply the whole match as the first element of the array, preg_match_all doesn't - the first array is empty. At least with the pattern I chose (havn't tried others since it's the one I need) it doesn't work. Here is my code: preg_match_all("/<\?\?(\t| )?translate(\t| )?...
Is there a simple trick to isolate the first sentence in a large string of text? (Perhaps using regular expressions.) Searching for the first fullstop "." doesn't work, as acronyms such as "U.S.A." will screw things up. (There probably is no right answer.) ...

Any t...

I was asked today if there was a library to take a list of strings and to compute the most efficient regex to match only those strings. I think it's an NP Complete problem by itself, but I think we can refine the scope a bit. How would I generate and simplify a regex to match a subset of hosts from a larger set of all hosts on my networ...
