Every regular expression can be written solely in terms of the Kleene star and set unions over finite words. This is a surprisingly difficult problem. As simple as the regular expressions are, there is no method to systematically rewrite them to some normal form. The lack of axiom in the past led to the star height problem.
Unlike keyword searching, regex searching is by default case-sensitive, does not ignore punctuation, and operates directly on the page source (MediaWiki markup) rather than on the rendered contents of the page. To perform a regex search, use the ordinary search box with the syntax insource:/regex/ or intitle:/regex/.
In the case of a web application, the programmer may use the same regular expression to validate input on both the client and the server side of the system. An attacker could inspect the client code, looking for evil regular expressions, and send crafted input directly to the web server in order to hang it.

Self-validation: [19] re2c has a special mode in which it ignores all used-defined interface code and generates a self-contained skeleton program. Additionally, re2c generates two files: one with the input strings derived from the regular grammar, and one with compressed match results that are used to verify lexer behavior on all inputs.
Normally searches ignore non-alphanumeric characters, but regular expressions (regex) accept all characters, plus metacharacters. This template acts as a doorway by helping to develop a database query before running it on the wiki, and it does this by way of a search link that can also be used to share such discoveries.
Below is a simple grammar, defined using the notation of regular expressions and Extended Backus–Naur form. It describes the syntax of S-expressions, a data syntax of the programming language Lisp, which defines productions for the syntactic categories expression, atom, number, symbol, and list:
