  2. Regular expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression

    Regular expressions are used in search engines, in search and replace dialogs of word processors and text editors, in text processing utilities such as sed and AWK, and in lexical analysis. Regular expressions are supported in many programming languages. Library implementations are often called an "engine", [4] [5] and many of these are ...

  3. Thompson's construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thompson's_construction

    To decide whether two given regular expressions describe the same language, each can be converted into an equivalent minimal deterministic finite automaton via Thompson's construction, powerset construction, and DFA minimization. If, and only if, the resulting automata agree up to renaming of states, the regular expressions' languages agree.

  5. Lexical analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexical_analysis

    Regular expressions and the finite-state machines they generate are not powerful enough to handle recursive patterns, such as "n opening parentheses, followed by a statement, followed by n closing parentheses." They are unable to keep count, and verify that n is the same on both sides, unless a finite set of permissible values exists for n. It ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Searching

    Like word searches and exact-phrase searches, non-alphanumeric characters are ignored, and proximity and fuzziness are options. insource:/regexp/ insource:/regexp/i: These are regular expressions. They use a lot of processing power, so we can only allow a few at a time on the search cluster, but they are very powerful.

  7. String-searching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String-searching_algorithm

    A simple and inefficient way to see where one string occurs inside another is to check at each index, one by one. First, we see if there is a copy of the needle starting at the first character of the haystack; if not, we look to see if there's a copy of the needle starting at the second character of the haystack, and so forth.

    The state of a deterministic finite automaton = (,,,,) is unreachable if no string in exists for which = (,).In this definition, is the set of states, is the set of input symbols, is the transition function (mapping a state and an input symbol to a set of states), is its extension to strings (also known as extended transition function), is the initial state, and is the set of accepting (also ...
