为什么是这样？
regex是给我我的代码类型的问题和穷人的答案，没有解释。此引用意在提供到质量问答的链接。
范围是什么？
此引用适用于以下语言：php,perl,javascript,python,ruby,java,.net。
这可能过于宽泛，但这些语言具有相同的语法。对于特定的功能，有它背后的语言的标签，例如：
>什么是正则表达式平衡组？ .net
量词
>零或更多：*:greedy，[*？：不愿] [需要链接]，*+:possessive
>一个或多个：+:greedy，[？：reluctant] [需要链接]，++:possessive
> ?:optional (zero-or-one)
>最小/最大范围(全部)：{n,m}:between n & m,{n,}:n-or-more,{n}:exactly n
>贪婪，勉强(又名“懒惰”，“不y”)和占有量词的区别：
> Greedy vs. Reluctant vs. Possessive Quantifiers
> In-depth discussion on the differences between greedy versus non-greedy
> What’s the difference between {n} and {n}?
> Can someone explain Possessive Quantifiers to me? php，perl，java，ruby
> Emulating possessive quantifiers .net
>非stackoverflow参考：从Oracle，regular-expressions.info
字符类
> What is the difference between square brackets and parentheses?
> [...]：任何一个字符，[^...]：否定/任何字符
> [^] matches any one character including newlines javascript
> [\w-[\d]] / [a-z-[qz]]：设置减法.net，xml-schema，xpath，JGSoft
> [\w&&[^\d]]: set intersection java，ruby 1.9
> [[:alpha:]]：POSIX字符类
> Why do [^\\D2],[^[^0-9]2],[^2[^0-9]] get different results in Java? java
>短手：
> Digit：\d:digit，\D:non-digit
>字符(字母，数字，下划线)：\w:word character，\W:non-word character
>空白：\s:whitespace，\S:non-whitespace
> Unicode categories (\p{L},\P{L},etc.)
转义序列
>水平空白：\h:space-or-tab，\t:tab
>换行：
> \r,\n:carriage return and line feed
> \R:generic newline php
>否定空白序列：\H:Non horizontal whitespace character,\V:Non vertical whitespace character,\N:Non line feed character pcre php5 java-8
>其他：\v:vertical tab，\e:the escape character
锚点
> ^:start of line/input，\b:word boundary,and \B:non-word boundary，$:end of line/input
> \A:start of input,\Z:end of input php，perl，python，ruby
> \G:start of match php，perl，ruby

组
> (...):capture group,(?:):non-capture group
> Why is my repeating capturing group only capturing the last match?
> \1:backreference and capture-group reference,$1:capture group reference

> What does a subpattern (?i:regex) mean?
> What does the ‘P’ in (?P<group_name>regexp) mean?
> (?>):atomic group或independent group,(?|):branch reset
> Equivalent of branch reset in .NET/C# .net
>命名捕获组：

>其他语言：(?P<groupname>regex) python,(?<groupname>regex) .net,(?<groupname>regex) perl，(< group name> regex)和(？< groupname> regex)php
环境
> Lookaheads：(?=...):positive，(?!...):negative
> Lookbehinds：(?<=...):positive，(?<!...):negative(不受javascript支持)
> Lookbehind限制：
> Lookbehinds need to be constant-length php，perl，python，ruby
> Lookarounds of limited length {0,n} java
> Variable length lookbehinds are allowed .net
> Lookbehind替代方案：
> Using \K php，perl(Flavors that support \K)
> Alternative regex module for python python
> The hacky way
> Javascript negative lookbehind equivalents External link
修饰符
>最多风味：g:global，i:case-insensitive，u:unicode，x:whitespace-extended
> c:current position perl e:expression php perl o:once ruby
> m:multiline php perl python javascript .net java，m:(non)multiline ruby

其他：
> |:alternation (OR) operator，.:any character，[.]:literal dot character
> What special characters must be escaped?
>控制动词(php和perl)：(*PRUNE),(*SKIP),(*FAIL) and (*F)
> php only：(*BSR_ANYCRLF)
>递归(php和perl)：(?R)，(?0) and (?1)，(?-1)，(?&groupname)

> How to find all Youtube video ids in a string using a regex?
>验证：
> Internet：email addresses,urls(主机/端口：regex和non-regex替代方案)，passwords
