For our 2011-11-15 BALUG meeting, we'll have a bit of a "workshop" on Regular Expressions[1], by Michael Paoli. Zero to quite a bit of regular expression familiarity? Been to BALUG presentation or the like on Regular Expressions before[2]? (maybe, maybe not) In any case, a session on Regular Expressions - but a different approach. This session will be on finding Regular Expression solutions to solve problems - so bring your problems, examples, etc., and we'll work on them, and/or come for the entertainment/education value of seeing some of the more interesting and complex problems and solutions - and simple fun ones too. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expressions 2. http://lists.balug.org/pipermail/balug-talk-balug.org/2009-July/004456.html So, if you'd like to join us please RSVP to: rsvp at balug.org **Why RSVP??** Well, don't worry we won't turn you away, but the RSVPs really help BALUG and the Four Seas Restaurant plan the meal and meeting, and with sufficient attendance, they also help ensure that we'll be able to eat upstairs in the private banquet room.
