    He later added this capability to the Unix editor ed, which eventually led to the popular search tool grep's use of regular expressions ("grep" is a word derived from the command for regular expression searching in the ed editor: g/re/p meaning "Global search for Regular Expression and Print matching lines").

  3. 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.

  4. grep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grep

    The pcregrep command is an implementation of grep that uses Perl regular expression syntax. [17] Similar functionality can be invoked in the GNU version of grep with the -P flag. [18] Ports of grep (within Cygwin and GnuWin32, for example) also run under Microsoft Windows. Some versions of Windows feature the similar qgrep or findstr command. [19]

  5. Pattern matching - Wikipedia

    Here, 0 is a single value pattern. Now, whenever f is given 0 as argument the pattern matches and the function returns 1. With any other argument, the matching and thus the function fail. As the syntax supports alternative patterns in function definitions, we can continue the definition extending it to take more generic arguments:

  6. 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.

    Both functions are a part of POSIX: the functions defined in POSIX.1 since 2001, and the syntax defined in POSIX.2. [3] [4] The idea of defining a separate match function started with wildmat (wildcard match), a simple library to match strings against Bourne Shell globs.

    RE2 is a software library which implements a regular expression engine. It uses finite-state machines, in contrast to most other regular expression libraries.RE2 supports a C++ interface.
