Respectfully, no. If you're trying to write a full blown language parser then regexps are the wrong tool, but a 50 line function doing the job of a regexp has a really funky code smell. Comment your regexps*, and use a parser when your usecase outgrows regexps, but a blanket ban on regexps smells of "I'm not smart enough to understand them". * https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/regular-expressions-coo... |
