Powerful text searching and matching with Regexes

Powerful text searching and matching with Regexes

Have you ever wanted to extract phone numbers out of a block of unstructured text? Or email addresses. Or find all the words that start with “e” and end with “ed”, no matter their length. Regular expressions (regexes for short) are a powerful way to match and make substitutions to text. Come along to this workshop to learn what they can do and how to apply them to your research.

This brand new 2-hour course has been specifically written for researchers and higher degree research (HDR) students who want to learn about how regular expressions can be used to search text in ways far more powerful than traditional “search” and “replace”.
