Examples of Reluctant Quantifiers

懒惰量词指示搜索引擎从最短可能的字符串片段开始。一旦找到匹配项,引擎将继续;否则,它会向正在检查的字符串部分添加一个字符并搜索该部分,依此类推。此过程将一直持续到找到匹配项或用完整个字符串。以下是使用 Java 中的正则表达式编写懒惰量词的一些示例。

A reluctant quantifier indicates the search engine to start with the shortest possible piece of the string. Once match found, the engine continue; otherwise it adds one character to the section of the string being checked and search that, and so on. This process follows until it finds a match or the entire string has been used up. Following are various examples of Reluctant Quantifiers using regular expression in java.
