  2. Wildcard (Java) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_(Java)

    In the Java programming language, the wildcard? is a special kind of type argument [1] that controls the type safety of the use of generic (parameterized) types. [2] It can be used in variable declarations and instantiations as well as in method definitions, but not in the definition of a generic type.

  3. Regular expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression

    In Java and Python 3.11+, [40] quantifiers may be made possessive by appending a plus sign, which disables backing off (in a backtracking engine), even if doing so would allow the overall match to succeed: [41] While the regex ".*" applied to the string "Ganymede," he continued, "is the largest moon in the Solar System."

  4. grep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grep

    grep is a command-line utility for searching plaintext datasets for lines that match a regular expression. Its name comes from the ed command g/re/p (global regular expression search and print), which has the same effect.

  6. glob (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glob_(programming)

    The glob command, short for global, originates in the earliest versions of Bell Labs' Unix. [1] The command interpreters of the early versions of Unix (1st through 6th Editions, 1969–1975) relied on a separate program to expand wildcard characters in unquoted arguments to a command: /etc/glob. That program performed the expansion and supplied ...

  7. Matching wildcards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_wildcards

    In computer science, an algorithm for matching wildcards (also known as globbing) is useful in comparing text strings that may contain wildcard syntax. [1] Common uses of these algorithms include command-line interfaces, e.g. the Bourne shell [2] or Microsoft Windows command-line [3] or text editor or file manager, as well as the interfaces for some search engines [4] and databases. [5]

  8. Perl Compatible Regular Expressions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perl_Compatible_Regular...

    Philip Hazel started writing PCRE in summer 1997. [3] PCRE's syntax is much more powerful and flexible than either of the POSIX regular expression flavors (BRE, ERE) [4] and than that of many other regular-expression libraries. While PCRE originally aimed at feature-equivalence with Perl, the two implementations are not fully equivalent.
