Simplifying Regular Expression Using Python: Learn RegEx Like Never Before Paperback – Large Print, April 20, 2019

This book starts with the basics of regular expression matching in the Python language. So if you don't already know Python, you can also learn it at the same time as learning some of the basics of what you can do. I liked the clear examples and also liked that the chapters provided problems to code a matching regular expression that was not in the book as this is something that is best learned by doing and practicing it hands on

I rarely write a book review, but I was appreciative of how this book was written and felt I should let everyone know. I get frustrated with books that are too verbose, forcing the reader on an Easter Egg hunt for nuggets of information. This book goes right to the point very efficiently. The explanations and examples are clear, concise and reproducible. This is also one of the few books focused on Python features. It is not an exhaustive compendium of Python regex features, but it is a great book for a beginner such as myself. This book is well worth the inexpensive cost. To the author, this is a great book! I thank you for your contribution to the Python community!

If I had asked ChatGPT to write a 40 pages on this topic... in book format... based on the online work of the authors, the result would be similar.Did this book exist before I ordered it? Dark days indeed.

For users that want to immediately get down to implementing regex, this is your go-to source. Regex is introduced via useful real-world examples which build upon one another. From regex.dumb to regex.smart in less than an hour!

I love an author who can convey a functional understanding of ANY concept or tool in the fewest sentences or pages. This author qualifies at least for my purposes. Academics like to produce books and streams of narratives one can get lost in. Practitioners convey just the contextual, practical, and focused knowledge required to get started. This was what I needed...thanks so much!

If you've ever looked at Regular Expressions you know that it looks so easy with the shortcut symbols, right? Then, when you see a RegEx pattern to sniff out something simple such as birthdates in a small encyclopedia, your brain begins to melt. Amnesia sets in to excuse us from every tackling RegEx again. But you need to learn it, so I advise you pick up this book. I enjoyed this book. Yes, it needs editing for grammar, but the dialect is readable and, actually, adds to the fun of reading the book. Yes, there are RegEx errors, but they were fun to catch. The authors do a superb job of introducing RegEx in an easy-to-learn style with practical examples and clean descriptions. By the time you get through it, you'll understand RegEx oh! so much better. I seriously recommend this small book if you're struggling with Regular Expressions.

Explanations are clear and easy to understand. Good starting book for getting the basic understanding of regular expressions and it’s usage.

Lots of poor grammer, typos. Would be a nice work with proper editing.

Un libro sintético, con ejemplos prácticos y con magníficas explicaciones sobre cada línea de código.

Great book.It helped me to learn regular expression very easily.Worth buying it,Highly recommended. Simplifying regular expression as suggested, it has really simplified the learn

This 'book' is extremely poorly written and amateurish to the extreme. The pages are not even numbered! I have studied Regex before, so I bought this book as a reference guide to help with my PhD studies. I have read many books on data science for many different languages before, but this one must go back for a refund.

not what i expected

Giving it a five star. Super simple, complete and practical. Congratulations for the author.
