Grab some String Manipulation and Regular Expression Practice!
The contest has ended
Speed . Accuracy . Efficiency
A lot of programming in the real world, often deals with string, text and markup.
Whether you need to parse and format real data files, or handle language processing tasks, or write a lexical analyzer for a programming language: being adept with string processing and regular expressions will make your tasks a lot easier. So, for that purpose, we begin a series of string, text and regular expression practice matches with a sprinkling of their applications from Computational Linguistics and/or NLP . The problems will mostly be easy or medium level in nature, and we hope they help you perform even better as a programmer.
In the meantime, you might also be interested in exploring and trying out similar challenges on our regular expressions track over here.
Replaying a session which we held last year.
