Introduction

Regular expressions are sequences of characters that form a search pattern, mainly used for string searching and manipulation. In Python, they are implemented through the built-in 're' module.

Basic Concepts

  • Patterns: Specific sequences of characters that represent a search criteria.
  • Metacharacters: Special characters that signify broader types of patterns (like '*', '+', '?').
  • Character Classes: Represent a set of characters that match any one character from the set (like '\d', '\w', '\s').
