Regular Expression is a powerful, elegant, simple (and confusing language!).

Regex is a handy tool for data cleanup and preparation.

It is one of those things that you always wanted to learn but never had a chance to dedicate time and learn.

Stop googling and master regular expression with my simple and straightforward course: 2020 Python Regular Expressions, Projects, and Solutions Course (available with Subtitles)

What will you learn in this course?

1. In just a couple of hours, you will master regular expression language and learn the internals of the regular expression engine
2. You will apply your new skills with four hands-on, real-world projects
3. You will gain a solid understanding of the type of performance issues regex can run into, and techniques to address them
4. As part of resources in this course, you will get a high-quality quick reference guide, an interactive tool, all the source code and downloadable slides
5. You can transfer your regex learning to any language

Why Learn Regular Expressions?

• Often, the data that we need is not readily accessible or useful.
• Data preparation and clean-up are one of the most time-consuming activities in a software automation project.
• Instead of spending time writing code for all this, you can specify data patterns of interest and let regular expression engine do the work for you
• Regular Expression is cross-platform, and you can learn the concepts once and use it in multiple programming languages and environment

Source Code

• The source code for this course available on Git and that ensures you always get the latest code

Ideal Student

• The ideal student for this course is willing to learn, participate in the course Q&A forum when you need help, and you need to be comfortable coding in Python.
