Regular Expressions
   by Charles Carroll, Jeff Schoolcraft, Anil John, Scott Cate

Regular Expressions allow complex string examination and manipulation.

Below are some samples that hint at their power and some online references and pointers to relevant books.

Here is the file parsed the traditional way:
    /students/scottcate/sourcecode-mb.aspx

Here is it parsed using several individual RegEx (the brute force way)
  /students/aniljohn/sourcecode-mb.aspx

Here is it parsed using one RegEx that divides it into groups
   /students/jeffschoolcraft/sourcecode_mb.aspx

Amazon:B0000632ZU The Dan Appleman book is inexpensive and concise.
Amazon:0596002890 this book has decent .net chapter and goe-s much deeper into the philosopy of regular expressions and details all the languages they can be called from.
