My goal in this article is to teach you everything you ever wanted to know about Regular Expressions. Regular Expressions are used to decide if a set of characters match what you are searching for. You use a series of codes to define what you are looking for.
Because these codes are so simple and look confusing when they are crammed together, people think Regular Expressions are too hard to use. My mission is to make them easy to use in this article and the next. Promise!
