Introduction to Regular Expressions in Python

This beginner path introduces regular expressions for Python-based text processing. You will learn how to define patterns with literals, special characters, character classes, and other core matching tools.

You will use capture groups to extract structured information, identify repeated patterns, and reformat text. You will also validate input, apply flags, use lookaheads to express conditional matching rules, and process large text files efficiently.

Finally, you will explore pattern performance, handle international text, and design maintainable regex code. The path concludes with a complete text data processing pipeline that integrates these skills.
