I actually missed out on an entry level programming job because I didn't know RegEx. Who would've thought I could've learned it all in about an hour from these videos. Thanks so much!
@WikiPeoples
I only wish everyone on youtube could enunciate, speak as clearly, and teach as well as Mr. Banas. This is a top notch tutorial A+
@derekbanas
@sethchilds Yes I am because I'm old. In the procedure programming days everything was called a function. Now object functions are called methods. So a function that is created on its own is called a function. An object function is called a method. Sorry if that was confusing. Glad you liked the video
@derekbanas
@WikiPeoples I'm glad you liked it. I have regex tutorials for numerous languages. I'm happy to explain anything that isn't completely clear.
@derekbanas
@TheDjCharon Wow thank you :) I'm glad you liked it. I have a bunch of other videos on Regular Expressions.
@derekbanas
Thank you very much :) Yes regular expressions are made for that type of automation. I have a bunch of tutorials on them on my channel for multiple languages. You may also use something like DocumentBuilder and Document in java
@derekbanas
@CamiloSanchez1979 Yes regular expressions are nearly identical no matter what language you are using them in. The methods you call are different, but everything else is the same
@derekbanas
You're very welcome :) I hope to some day visit Norway. It looks like a beautiful country with wonderful people!
@derekbanas
I never found written Chinese to be that hard to learn because it is structured so well. It is very logical. English on the other hand is a very strange and I understand why people struggle with it. Thank you for the offer to help, but I doubt I'll teach spoken languages any time soon. Ill stay with what I know well for now :)
@derekbanas
@swaip1 You're right. I hadn't covered readlines prior to this and that is why I did it the way I did. When making tutorials I can't always make everything as efficient as possible. I hope that makes sense
@JoseLemus68
Derek, you make it look so easy and you explain it so just about anyone can understand. Thank you!
@derekbanas
Thank you for the kind comment :) You're very welcome
@t-dude7372
Just wanted to say thanks! Your work helped immensely, I've been able to accomplish what I wanted (and more) from watching your two videos.
@derekbanas
@ryusei323 You're very welcome. I'm glad you like them :)
@derekbanas
You're welcome :) I have tons of articles that work as cheat sheets on regex on my site. They are all free of course. I checked that website you listed and it seems that the admin is currently working on it
@andyxing6260
Wow, working in radio, plus all these amazing videos on youtube. I have to say you are a capable man. Thank you for your interests in Chinese language:) People say it's hard to learn it, I don't know whether it's true all not since I was raised in a Chinese environment, but I would be very happy to help you with it in the future if you want. 祝你好运. Good luck to you.
@derekbanas
Yes it would match for Jennify. It matches for any word that begins with Jen and then any 6 letters after that are either n, i, f, e, r, or y. Does that help?
@derekbanas
Thank you :) Yes I agree and since I made this tutorial I have recovered regex many times
@derekbanas
@darius00dada What you are looking for is called a negative look ahead assertion. It's kind of high end regex. I feel like I'm being quizzed :) Here is the solution %Jen\w{0,5}\s(?!Smith)% It will match for any Jen type names that don't end with Smith. Is that what you're looking for?
