Regular Expression Article #3

In January 2007 I posted an article on my web site titled “Regular Expression Matching Can Be Simple And Fast.” I intended this to be the first of three; the second would explain how to do submatching using automata, and the third would explain how to make a really fast DFA. I posted the second article a few months ago.

Today, the third and final article is available, along with an open source production implementation called RE2.

Hi, the following images are a 404:

linked in the sentence: " for example, look at \p{Greek} (the Greek script) or at \p{Lu} "

@tef: Fixed, thank you.

It looks very nice, thanks for publishing this.

Do you plan to evolve Go's regexp package in this direction as well?
