Interface RE.Q

All Superinterfaces:

RE

Enclosing interface:

RE

public static interface RE.Q
extends RE

The `*`, `?`, `+` operators and the `{...}` suffix quantify the previous node. By default, these quantified nodes are _greedy_, they try to match as much as possible of the input. Quantified nodes can be further modified to be reluctant (first match) or possesive.
