Learning Regular Expressions Paperback – Import, 3 July 2018

This book makes the subject approachable for a wider audience. I was able to start reading and modifying regex after a couple weeks with it.

This is the best intro to this subject. It gently goes thru examples at a pace you can easily follow. Recommended for those that need to build their confidence with regular expressions.

I am an experienced excel vba developer but I discovered Regular Expressions only recently while trying to figure out a solution for a programming problem. I was fascinated by the topic and wanted to become proficient at this. I was disappointed at first when I realised that the book is really short but after reading the first chapter I felt it was exactly what I needed: a straight to the point, user friendly guide to get me started rather than a huge reference book.The writing style is clear and the content is well structured with plenty of examples for each topic.I am happy with my purchase.

I use regular expression searches and replaces periodically in my work and keep this book and another for reference. It seems to have most of what I need.

Read it in a weekend and was fully prepped for Grok patterns in Elastic Logstash. Well explained examples
