It's important to remember that: matching a character class consumes exactly one character in the source string. (The source string is the string the regular expression is matched against.) .PP There are three types of character classes in Perl regular expressions: the dot, backslash sequences, and the form enclosed in square brackets. Keep in mind, though, that often the term \*(L"character class\*(R" is used to mean just the bracketed form. Certainly, most Perl documentation does that. .SS "The dot" .IX Subsection "The dot" The dot (or period), \f(CW\*(C`.\*(C'\fR is probably the most used, and certainly the most well-known character class. By default, a dot matches any character, except for the newline. That default can be changed to add matching the newline by using the \fIsingle line\fR modifier: for the entire regular expression with the \f(CW\*(C`/s\*(C'\fR modifier, or locally with \f(CW\*(C`(?s)\*(C'\fR (and even globally within the scope of \&\f(CW\*(C`use re \*(Aq/s\*(Aq\*(C'\fR). (The \f(CW"\eN"\fR backslash sequence, described below, matches any character except newline without regard to the \&\fIsingle line\fR modifier.) .PP Here are some examples: .PP .Vb 7 \& "a" =~ /./ # Match \& "." =~ /./ # Match \& "" =~ /./ # No match (dot has to match a character) \& "\en" =~ /./ # No match (dot does not match a newline) \& "\en" =~ /./s # Match (global \*(Aqsingle line\*(Aq modifier) \& "\en" =~ /(?s:.)/ # Match (local \*(Aqsingle line\*(Aq modifier) \& "ab" =~ /^.$/ # No match (dot matches one character) .Ve .SS "Backslash sequences" .IX Xref "\\w \\W \\s \\S \\d \\D \\p \\P \\N \\v \\V \\h \\H word whitespace" .IX Subsection "Backslash sequences" A backslash sequence is a sequence of characters, the first one of which is a backslash. Perl ascribes special meaning to many such sequences, and some of these are character classes. That is, they match a single character each, provided that the character belongs to the specific set of characters defined by the sequence. .PP Here's a list of the backslash sequences that are character classes. They are discussed in more detail below. (For the backslash sequences that aren't character classes, see perlrebackslash.) .PP .Vb 10 \& \ed Match a decimal digit character. \& \eD Match a non\-decimal\-digit character. \& \ew Match a "word" character. \& \eW Match a non\-"word" character. \& \es Match a whitespace character. \& \eS Match a non\-whitespace character. \& \eh Match a horizontal whitespace character. \& \eH Match a character that isn\*(Aqt horizontal whitespace. \& \ev Match a vertical whitespace character. \& \eV Match a character that isn\*(Aqt vertical whitespace. \& \eN Match a character that isn\*(Aqt a newline. \& \epP, \ep{Prop} Match a character that has the given Unicode property. \& \ePP, \eP{Prop} Match a character that doesn\*(Aqt have the Unicode property .Ve .PP \fI\eN\fR .IX Subsection "N" .PP \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN\*(C'\fR, available starting in v5.12, like the dot, matches any character that is not a newline. The difference is that \f(CW\*(C`\eN\*(C'\fR is not influenced by the \fIsingle line\fR regular expression modifier (see \*(L"The dot\*(R" above). Note that the form \f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR may mean something completely different. When the \&\f(CW\*(C`{...}\*(C'\fR is a quantifier, it means to match a non-newline character that many times. For example, \f(CW\*(C`\eN{3}\*(C'\fR means to match 3 non-newlines; \f(CW\*(C`\eN{5,}\*(C'\fR means to match 5 or more non-newlines. But if \f(CW\*(C`{...}\*(C'\fR is not a legal quantifier, it is presumed to be a named character. See charnames for those. For example, none of \f(CW\*(C`\eN{COLON}\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\eN{4F}\*(C'\fR, and \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN{F4}\*(C'\fR contain legal quantifiers, so Perl will try to find characters whose names are respectively \f(CW\*(C`COLON\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`4F\*(C'\fR, and \f(CW\*(C`F4\*(C'\fR. .PP \fIDigits\fR .IX Subsection "Digits" .PP \&\f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR matches a single character considered to be a decimal \fIdigit\fR. If the \f(CW\*(C`/a\*(C'\fR regular expression modifier is in effect, it matches [0\-9]. Otherwise, it matches anything that is matched by \f(CW\*(C`\ep{Digit}\*(C'\fR, which includes [0\-9]. (An unlikely possible exception is that under locale matching rules, the current locale might not have \f(CW\*(C`[0\-9]\*(C'\fR matched by \f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR, and/or might match other characters whose code point is less than 256. The only such locale definitions that are legal would be to match \f(CW\*(C`[0\-9]\*(C'\fR plus another set of 10 consecutive digit characters; anything else would be in violation of the C language standard, but Perl doesn't currently assume anything in regard to this.) .PP What this means is that unless the \f(CW\*(C`/a\*(C'\fR modifier is in effect \f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR not only matches the digits '0' \- '9', but also Arabic, Devanagari, and digits from other languages. This may cause some confusion, and some security issues. .PP Some digits that \f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR matches look like some of the [0\-9] ones, but have different values. For example, \s-1BENGALI DIGIT FOUR\s0 (U+09EA) looks very much like an \s-1ASCII DIGIT EIGHT\s0 (U+0038), and \s-1LEPCHA DIGIT SIX\s0 (U+1C46) looks very much like an \s-1ASCII DIGIT FIVE\s0 (U+0035). An application that is expecting only the \s-1ASCII\s0 digits might be misled, or if the match is \&\f(CW\*(C`\ed+\*(C'\fR, the matched string might contain a mixture of digits from different writing systems that look like they signify a number different than they actually do. \*(L"\fBnum()\fR\*(R" in Unicode::UCD can be used to safely calculate the value, returning \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR if the input string contains such a mixture. Otherwise, for example, a displayed price might be deliberately different than it appears. .PP What \f(CW\*(C`\ep{Digit}\*(C'\fR means (and hence \f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR except under the \f(CW\*(C`/a\*(C'\fR modifier) is \f(CW\*(C`\ep{General_Category=Decimal_Number}\*(C'\fR, or synonymously, \&\f(CW\*(C`\ep{General_Category=Digit}\*(C'\fR. Starting with Unicode version 4.1, this is the same set of characters matched by \f(CW\*(C`\ep{Numeric_Type=Decimal}\*(C'\fR. But Unicode also has a different property with a similar name, \&\f(CW\*(C`\ep{Numeric_Type=Digit}\*(C'\fR, which matches a completely different set of characters. These characters are things such as \f(CW\*(C`CIRCLED DIGIT ONE\*(C'\fR or subscripts, or are from writing systems that lack all ten digits. .PP The design intent is for \f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR to exactly match the set of characters that can safely be used with \*(L"normal\*(R" big-endian positional decimal syntax, where, for example 123 means one 'hundred', plus two 'tens', plus three 'ones'. This positional notation does not necessarily apply to characters that match the other type of \*(L"digit\*(R", \&\f(CW\*(C`\ep{Numeric_Type=Digit}\*(C'\fR, and so \f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR doesn't match them. .PP The Tamil digits (U+0BE6 \- U+0BEF) can also legally be used in old-style Tamil numbers in which they would appear no more than one in a row, separated by characters that mean \*(L"times 10\*(R", \*(L"times 100\*(R", etc. (See <https://www.unicode.org/notes/tn21>.) .PP Any character not matched by \f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR is matched by \f(CW\*(C`\eD\*(C'\fR. .PP \fIWord characters\fR .IX Subsection "Word characters" .PP A \f(CW\*(C`\ew\*(C'\fR matches a single alphanumeric character (an alphabetic character, or a decimal digit); or a connecting punctuation character, such as an underscore (\*(L"_\*(R"); or a \*(L"mark\*(R" character (like some sort of accent) that attaches to one of those. It does not match a whole word. To match a whole word, use \f(CW\*(C`\ew+\*(C'\fR. This isn't the same thing as matching an English word, but in the \s-1ASCII\s0 range it is the same as a string of Perl-identifier characters. .ie n .IP "If the ""/a"" modifier is in effect ..." 4 .el .IP "If the \f(CW/a\fR modifier is in effect ..." 4 .IX Item "If the /a modifier is in effect ..." \&\f(CW\*(C`\ew\*(C'\fR matches the 63 characters [a\-zA\-Z0\-9_]. .IP "otherwise ..." 4 .IX Item "otherwise ..." .RS 4 .PD 0 .IP "For code points above 255 ..." 4 .IX Item "For code points above 255 ..." .PD \&\f(CW\*(C`\ew\*(C'\fR matches the same as \f(CW\*(C`\ep{Word}\*(C'\fR matches in this range.

See the beginning of this section. .PP \fIUnicode Properties\fR .IX Subsection "Unicode Properties" .PP \&\f(CW\*(C`\epP\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`\ep{Prop}\*(C'\fR are character classes to match characters that fit given Unicode properties. One letter property names can be used in the \f(CW\*(C`\epP\*(C'\fR form, with the property name following the \f(CW\*(C`\ep\*(C'\fR, otherwise, braces are required. When using braces, there is a single form, which is just the property name enclosed in the braces, and a compound form which looks like \f(CW\*(C`\ep{name=value}\*(C'\fR, which means to match if the property \*(L"name\*(R" for the character has that particular \&\*(L"value\*(R". For instance, a match for a number can be written as \f(CW\*(C`/\epN/\*(C'\fR or as \&\f(CW\*(C`/\ep{Number}/\*(C'\fR, or as \f(CW\*(C`/\ep{Number=True}/\*(C'\fR. Lowercase letters are matched by the property \fILowercase_Letter\fR which has the short form \fILl\fR. They need the braces, so are written as \f(CW\*(C`/\ep{Ll}/\*(C'\fR or \&\f(CW\*(C`/\ep{Lowercase_Letter}/\*(C'\fR, or \f(CW\*(C`/\ep{General_Category=Lowercase_Letter}/\*(C'\fR (the underscores are optional). \&\f(CW\*(C`/\epLl/\*(C'\fR is valid, but means something different. It matches a two character string: a letter (Unicode property \f(CW\*(C`\epL\*(C'\fR), followed by a lowercase \f(CW\*(C`l\*(C'\fR. .PP What a Unicode property matches is never subject to locale rules, and if locale rules are not otherwise in effect, the use of a Unicode property will force the regular expression into using Unicode rules, if it isn't already. .PP Note that almost all properties are immune to case-insensitive matching. That is, adding a \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR regular expression modifier does not change what they match. But there are two sets that are affected. The first set is \&\f(CW\*(C`Uppercase_Letter\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`Lowercase_Letter\*(C'\fR, and \f(CW\*(C`Titlecase_Letter\*(C'\fR, all of which match \f(CW\*(C`Cased_Letter\*(C'\fR under \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR matching. The second set is \&\f(CW\*(C`Uppercase\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`Lowercase\*(C'\fR, and \f(CW\*(C`Titlecase\*(C'\fR, all of which match \f(CW\*(C`Cased\*(C'\fR under \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR matching. (The difference between these sets is that some things, such as Roman numerals, come in both upper and lower case, so they are \f(CW\*(C`Cased\*(C'\fR, but aren't considered to be letters, so they aren't \f(CW\*(C`Cased_Letter\*(C'\fRs. They're actually \f(CW\*(C`Letter_Number\*(C'\fRs.) This set also includes its subsets \f(CW\*(C`PosixUpper\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`PosixLower\*(C'\fR, both of which under \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR match \f(CW\*(C`PosixAlpha\*(C'\fR. .PP For more details on Unicode properties, see \*(L"Unicode Character Properties\*(R" in perlunicode; for a complete list of possible properties, see \&\*(L"Properties accessible through \ep{} and \eP{}\*(R" in perluniprops, which notes all forms that have \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR differences. It is also possible to define your own properties. This is discussed in \&\*(L"User-Defined Character Properties\*(R" in perlunicode. .PP Unicode properties are defined (surprise!) only on Unicode code points. Starting in v5.20, when matching against \f(CW\*(C`\ep\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`\eP\*(C'\fR, Perl treats non-Unicode code points (those above the legal Unicode maximum of 0x10FFFF) as if they were typical unassigned Unicode code points. .PP Prior to v5.20, Perl raised a warning and made all matches fail on non-Unicode code points. This could be somewhat surprising: .PP .Vb 3 \& chr(0x110000) =~ \ep{ASCII_Hex_Digit=True} # Fails on Perls < v5.20. \& chr(0x110000) =~ \ep{ASCII_Hex_Digit=False} # Also fails on Perls \& # < v5.20 .Ve .PP Even though these two matches might be thought of as complements, until v5.20 they were so only on Unicode code points. .PP Starting in perl v5.30, wildcards are allowed in Unicode property values. See \*(L"Wildcards in Property Values\*(R" in perlunicode. .PP Examples .IX Subsection "Examples" .PP .Vb 8 \& "a" =~ /\ew/ # Match, "a" is a \*(Aqword\*(Aq character. \& "7" =~ /\ew/ # Match, "7" is a \*(Aqword\*(Aq character as well. \& "a" =~ /\ed/ # No match, "a" isn\*(Aqt a digit. \& "7" =~ /\ed/ # Match, "7" is a digit. \& " " =~ /\es/ # Match, a space is whitespace. \& "a" =~ /\eD/ # Match, "a" is a non\-digit. \& "7" =~ /\eD/ # No match, "7" is not a non\-digit. \& " " =~ /\eS/ # No match, a space is not non\-whitespace. \& \& " " =~ /\eh/ # Match, space is horizontal whitespace. \& " " =~ /\ev/ # No match, space is not vertical whitespace. \& "\er" =~ /\ev/ # Match, a return is vertical whitespace. \& \& "a" =~ /\epL/ # Match, "a" is a letter. \& "a" =~ /\ep{Lu}/ # No match, /\ep{Lu}/ matches upper case letters. \& \& "\ex{0e0b}" =~ /\ep{Thai}/ # Match, \ex{0e0b} is the character \& # \*(AqTHAI CHARACTER SO SO\*(Aq, and that\*(Aqs in \& # Thai Unicode class. \& "a" =~ /\eP{Lao}/ # Match, as "a" is not a Laotian character. .Ve .PP It is worth emphasizing that \f(CW\*(C`\ed\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\ew\*(C'\fR, etc, match single characters, not complete numbers or words. To match a number (that consists of digits), use \f(CW\*(C`\ed+\*(C'\fR; to match a word, use \f(CW\*(C`\ew+\*(C'\fR. But be aware of the security considerations in doing so, as mentioned above. .SS "Bracketed Character Classes" .IX Subsection "Bracketed Character Classes" The third form of character class you can use in Perl regular expressions is the bracketed character class. In its simplest form, it lists the characters that may be matched, surrounded by square brackets, like this: \f(CW\*(C`[aeiou]\*(C'\fR. This matches one of \f(CW\*(C`a\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`e\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`i\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`o\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`u\*(C'\fR. Like the other character classes, exactly one character is matched.* To match a longer string consisting of characters mentioned in the character class, follow the character class with a quantifier. For instance, \f(CW\*(C`[aeiou]+\*(C'\fR matches one or more lowercase English vowels. .PP Repeating a character in a character class has no effect; it's considered to be in the set only once. .PP Examples: .PP .Vb 5 \& "e" =~ /[aeiou]/ # Match, as "e" is listed in the class. \& "p" =~ /[aeiou]/ # No match, "p" is not listed in the class. \& "ae" =~ /^[aeiou]$/ # No match, a character class only matches \& # a single character. \& "ae" =~ /^[aeiou]+$/ # Match, due to the quantifier. \& \& \-\-\-\-\-\-\- .Ve .PP * There are two exceptions to a bracketed character class matching a single character only. Each requires special handling by Perl to make things work: .IP "\(bu" 4 When the class is to match caselessly under \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR matching rules, and a character that is explicitly mentioned inside the class matches a multiple-character sequence caselessly under Unicode rules, the class will also match that sequence. For example, Unicode says that the letter \f(CW\*(C`LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S\*(C'\fR should match the sequence \f(CW\*(C`ss\*(C'\fR under \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR rules. Thus, .Sp .Vb 2 \& \*(Aqss\*(Aq =~ /\eA\eN{LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S}\ez/i # Matches \& \*(Aqss\*(Aq =~ /\eA[aeioust\eN{LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S}]\ez/i # Matches .Ve .Sp For this to happen, the class must not be inverted (see \*(L"Negation\*(R") and the character must be explicitly specified, and not be part of a multi-character range (not even as one of its endpoints). (\*(L"Character Ranges\*(R" will be explained shortly.) Therefore, .Sp .Vb 6 \& \*(Aqss\*(Aq =~ /\eA[\e0\-\ex{ff}]\ez/ui # Doesn\*(Aqt match \& \*(Aqss\*(Aq =~ /\eA[\e0\-\eN{LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S}]\ez/ui # No match \& \*(Aqss\*(Aq =~ /\eA[\exDF\-\exDF]\ez/ui # Matches on ASCII platforms, since \& # \exDF is LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S, \& # and the range is just a single \& # element .Ve .Sp Note that it isn't a good idea to specify these types of ranges anyway. .IP "\(bu" 4 Some names known to \f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR refer to a sequence of multiple characters, instead of the usual single character. When one of these is included in the class, the entire sequence is matched. For example, .Sp .Vb 2 \& "\eN{TAMIL LETTER KA}\eN{TAMIL VOWEL SIGN AU}" \& =~ / ^ [\eN{TAMIL SYLLABLE KAU}] $ /x; .Ve .Sp matches, because \f(CW\*(C`\eN{TAMIL SYLLABLE KAU}\*(C'\fR is a named sequence consisting of the two characters matched against. Like the other instance where a bracketed class can match multiple characters, and for similar reasons, the class must not be inverted, and the named sequence may not appear in a range, even one where it is both endpoints. If these happen, it is a fatal error if the character class is within the scope of \f(CW\*(C`use re \*(Aqstrict\*(C'\fR, or within an extended \&\f(CW\*(C`(?[...])\*(C'\fR class; otherwise only the first code point is used (with a \f(CW\*(C`regexp\*(C'\fR\-type warning raised). .PP \fISpecial Characters Inside a Bracketed Character Class\fR .IX Subsection "Special Characters Inside a Bracketed Character Class" .PP Most characters that are meta characters in regular expressions (that is, characters that carry a special meaning like \f(CW\*(C`.\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`*\*(C'\fR, or \f(CW\*(C`(\*(C'\fR) lose their special meaning and can be used inside a character class without the need to escape them. For instance, \f(CW\*(C`[()]\*(C'\fR matches either an opening parenthesis, or a closing parenthesis, and the parens inside the character class don't group or capture. Be aware that, unless the pattern is evaluated in single-quotish context, variable interpolation will take place before the bracketed class is parsed: .PP .Vb 6 \& $, = "\et| "; \& $a =~ m\*(Aq[$,]\*(Aq; # single\-quotish: matches \*(Aq$\*(Aq or \*(Aq,\*(Aq \& $a =~ q{[$,]}\*(Aq # same \& $a =~ m/[$,]/; # double\-quotish: Because we made an \& # assignment to $, above, this now \& # matches "\et", "|", or " " .Ve .PP Characters that may carry a special meaning inside a character class are: \&\f(CW\*(C`\e\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`^\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\-\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`[\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`]\*(C'\fR, and are discussed below. They can be escaped with a backslash, although this is sometimes not needed, in which case the backslash may be omitted. .PP The sequence \f(CW\*(C`\eb\*(C'\fR is special inside a bracketed character class. While outside the character class, \f(CW\*(C`\eb\*(C'\fR is an assertion indicating a point that does not have either two word characters or two non-word characters on either side, inside a bracketed character class, \f(CW\*(C`\eb\*(C'\fR matches a backspace character. .PP The sequences \&\f(CW\*(C`\ea\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\ec\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\ee\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\ef\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\en\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN{\f(CINAME\f(CW}\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+\f(CIhex char\f(CW}\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\er\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\et\*(C'\fR, and \&\f(CW\*(C`\ex\*(C'\fR are also special and have the same meanings as they do outside a bracketed character class. .PP Also, a backslash followed by two or three octal digits is considered an octal number. .PP A \f(CW\*(C`[\*(C'\fR is not special inside a character class, unless it's the start of a \&\s-1POSIX\s0 character class (see \*(L"\s-1POSIX\s0 Character Classes\*(R" below). It normally does not need escaping. .PP A \f(CW\*(C`]\*(C'\fR is normally either the end of a \s-1POSIX\s0 character class (see \&\*(L"\s-1POSIX\s0 Character Classes\*(R" below), or it signals the end of the bracketed character class. If you want to include a \f(CW\*(C`]\*(C'\fR in the set of characters, you must generally escape it. .PP However, if the \f(CW\*(C`]\*(C'\fR is the \fIfirst\fR (or the second if the first character is a caret) character of a bracketed character class, it does not denote the end of the class (as you cannot have an empty class) and is considered part of the set of characters that can be matched without escaping. .PP Examples: .PP .Vb 8 \& "+" =~ /[+?*]/ # Match, "+" in a character class is not special. \& "\ecH" =~ /[\eb]/ # Match, \eb inside in a character class \& # is equivalent to a backspace. \& "]" =~ /[][]/ # Match, as the character class contains \& # both [ and ]. \& "[]" =~ /[[]]/ # Match, the pattern contains a character class \& # containing just [, and the character class is \& # followed by a ]. .Ve .PP \fIBracketed Character Classes and the \f(CI\*(C`/xx\*(C'\fI pattern modifier\fR .IX Subsection "Bracketed Character Classes and the /xx pattern modifier" .PP Normally \s-1SPACE\s0 and \s-1TAB\s0 characters have no special meaning inside a bracketed character class; they are just added to the list of characters matched by the class. But if the \f(CW\*(C`/xx\*(C'\fR pattern modifier is in effect, they are generally ignored and can be added to improve readability. They can't be added in the middle of a single construct: .PP .Vb 1 \& / [ \ex{10 FFFF} ] /xx # WRONG! .Ve .PP The \s-1SPACE\s0 in the middle of the hex constant is illegal. .PP To specify a literal \s-1SPACE\s0 character, you can escape it with a backslash, like: .PP .Vb 1 \& /[ a e i o u \e ]/xx .Ve .PP This matches the English vowels plus the \s-1SPACE\s0 character. .PP For clarity, you should already have been using \f(CW\*(C`\et\*(C'\fR to specify a literal tab, and \f(CW\*(C`\et\*(C'\fR is unaffected by \f(CW\*(C`/xx\*(C'\fR. .PP \fICharacter Ranges\fR .IX Subsection "Character Ranges" .PP It is not uncommon to want to match a range of characters. Luckily, instead of listing all characters in the range, one may use the hyphen (\f(CW\*(C`\-\*(C'\fR). If inside a bracketed character class you have two characters separated by a hyphen, it's treated as if all characters between the two were in the class. For instance, \f(CW\*(C`[0\-9]\*(C'\fR matches any \s-1ASCII\s0 digit, and \f(CW\*(C`[a\-m]\*(C'\fR matches any lowercase letter from the first half of the \s-1ASCII\s0 alphabet. .PP Note that the two characters on either side of the hyphen are not necessarily both letters or both digits. Any character is possible, although not advisable. \f(CW\*(C`[\*(Aq\-?]\*(C'\fR contains a range of characters, but most people will not know which characters that means. Furthermore, such ranges may lead to portability problems if the code has to run on a platform that uses a different character set, such as \s-1EBCDIC.\s0 .PP If a hyphen in a character class cannot syntactically be part of a range, for instance because it is the first or the last character of the character class, or if it immediately follows a range, the hyphen isn't special, and so is considered a character to be matched literally. If you want a hyphen in your set of characters to be matched and its position in the class is such that it could be considered part of a range, you must escape that hyphen with a backslash. .PP Examples: .PP .Vb 12 \& [a\-z] # Matches a character that is a lower case ASCII letter. \& [a\-fz] # Matches any letter between \*(Aqa\*(Aq and \*(Aqf\*(Aq (inclusive) or \& # the letter \*(Aqz\*(Aq. \& [\-z] # Matches either a hyphen (\*(Aq\-\*(Aq) or the letter \*(Aqz\*(Aq. \& [a\-f\-m] # Matches any letter between \*(Aqa\*(Aq and \*(Aqf\*(Aq (inclusive), the \& # hyphen (\*(Aq\-\*(Aq), or the letter \*(Aqm\*(Aq. \& [\*(Aq\-?] # Matches any of the characters \*(Aq()*+,\-./0123456789:;<=>? \& # (But not on an EBCDIC platform). \& [\eN{APOSTROPHE}\-\eN{QUESTION MARK}] \& # Matches any of the characters \*(Aq()*+,\-./0123456789:;<=>? \& # even on an EBCDIC platform. \& [\eN{U+27}\-\eN{U+3F}] # Same. (U+27 is "\*(Aq", and U+3F is "?") .Ve .PP As the final two examples above show, you can achieve portability to non-ASCII platforms by using the \f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR form for the range endpoints. These indicate that the specified range is to be interpreted using Unicode values, so \f(CW\*(C`[\eN{U+27}\-\eN{U+3F}]\*(C'\fR means to match \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+27}\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+28}\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+29}\*(C'\fR, ..., \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+3D}\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+3E}\*(C'\fR, and \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+3F}\*(C'\fR, whatever the native code point versions for those are. These are called \*(L"Unicode\*(R" ranges. If either end is of the \f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR form, the range is considered Unicode. A \f(CW\*(C`regexp\*(C'\fR warning is raised under \f(CW"use\ re\ \*(Aqstrict\*(Aq"\fR if the other endpoint is specified non-portably: .PP .Vb 2 \& [\eN{U+00}\-\ex09] # Warning under re \*(Aqstrict\*(Aq; \ex09 is non\-portable \& [\eN{U+00}\-\et] # No warning; .Ve .PP Both of the above match the characters \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+00}\*(C'\fR \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+01}\*(C'\fR, ... \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+08}\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+09}\*(C'\fR, but the \f(CW\*(C`\ex09\*(C'\fR looks like it could be a mistake so the warning is raised (under \f(CW\*(C`re \*(Aqstrict\*(Aq\*(C'\fR) for it. .PP Perl also guarantees that the ranges \f(CW\*(C`A\-Z\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`a\-z\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`0\-9\*(C'\fR, and any subranges of these match what an English-only speaker would expect them to match on any platform. That is, \f(CW\*(C`[A\-Z]\*(C'\fR matches the 26 \s-1ASCII\s0 uppercase letters; \&\f(CW\*(C`[a\-z]\*(C'\fR matches the 26 lowercase letters; and \f(CW\*(C`[0\-9]\*(C'\fR matches the 10 digits. Subranges, like \f(CW\*(C`[h\-k]\*(C'\fR, match correspondingly, in this case just the four letters \f(CW"h"\fR, \f(CW"i"\fR, \f(CW"j"\fR, and \f(CW"k"\fR. This is the natural behavior on \s-1ASCII\s0 platforms where the code points (ordinal values) for \f(CW"h"\fR through \f(CW"k"\fR are consecutive integers (0x68 through 0x6B). But special handling to achieve this may be needed on platforms with a non-ASCII native character set. For example, on \s-1EBCDIC\s0 platforms, the code point for \f(CW"h"\fR is 0x88, \f(CW"i"\fR is 0x89, \f(CW"j"\fR is 0x91, and \f(CW"k"\fR is 0x92. Perl specially treats \f(CW\*(C`[h\-k]\*(C'\fR to exclude the seven code points in the gap: 0x8A through 0x90. This special handling is only invoked when the range is a subrange of one of the \s-1ASCII\s0 uppercase, lowercase, and digit ranges, \s-1AND\s0 each end of the range is expressed either as a literal, like \f(CW"A"\fR, or as a named character (\f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR, including the \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+...\*(C'\fR form). .PP \&\s-1EBCDIC\s0 Examples: .PP .Vb 10 \& [i\-j] # Matches either "i" or "j" \& [i\-\eN{LATIN SMALL LETTER J}] # Same \& [i\-\eN{U+6A}] # Same \& [\eN{U+69}\-\eN{U+6A}] # Same \& [\ex{89}\-\ex{91}] # Matches 0x89 ("i"), 0x8A .. 0x90, 0x91 ("j") \& [i\-\ex{91}] # Same \& [\ex{89}\-j] # Same \& [i\-J] # Matches, 0x89 ("i") .. 0xC1 ("J"); special \& # handling doesn\*(Aqt apply because range is mixed \& # case .Ve .PP \fINegation\fR .IX Subsection "Negation" .PP It is also possible to instead list the characters you do not want to match. You can do so by using a caret (\f(CW\*(C`^\*(C'\fR) as the first character in the character class. For instance, \f(CW\*(C`[^a\-z]\*(C'\fR matches any character that is not a lowercase \s-1ASCII\s0 letter, which therefore includes more than a million Unicode code points. The class is said to be \*(L"negated\*(R" or \*(L"inverted\*(R". .PP This syntax make the caret a special character inside a bracketed character class, but only if it is the first character of the class. So if you want the caret as one of the characters to match, either escape the caret or else don't list it first. .PP In inverted bracketed character classes, Perl ignores the Unicode rules that normally say that named sequence, and certain characters should match a sequence of multiple characters use under caseless \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR matching. Following those rules could lead to highly confusing situations: .PP .Vb 1 \& "ss" =~ /^[^\exDF]+$/ui; # Matches! .Ve .PP This should match any sequences of characters that aren't \f(CW\*(C`\exDF\*(C'\fR nor what \f(CW\*(C`\exDF\*(C'\fR matches under \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR. \f(CW"s"\fR isn't \f(CW\*(C`\exDF\*(C'\fR, but Unicode says that \f(CW"ss"\fR is what \f(CW\*(C`\exDF\*(C'\fR matches under \f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR. So which one \&\*(L"wins\*(R"? Do you fail the match because the string has \f(CW\*(C`ss\*(C'\fR or accept it because it has an \f(CW\*(C`s\*(C'\fR followed by another \f(CW\*(C`s\*(C'\fR? Perl has chosen the latter. (See note in \*(L"Bracketed Character Classes\*(R" above.) .PP Examples: .PP .Vb 4 \& "e" =~ /[^aeiou]/ # No match, the \*(Aqe\*(Aq is listed. \& "x" =~ /[^aeiou]/ # Match, as \*(Aqx\*(Aq isn\*(Aqt a lowercase vowel. \& "^" =~ /[^^]/ # No match, matches anything that isn\*(Aqt a caret. \& "^" =~ /[x^]/ # Match, caret is not special here. .Ve .PP \fIBackslash Sequences\fR .IX Subsection "Backslash Sequences" .PP You can put any backslash sequence character class (with the exception of \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`\eR\*(C'\fR) inside a bracketed character class, and it will act just as if you had put all characters matched by the backslash sequence inside the character class. For instance, \f(CW\*(C`[a\-f\ed]\*(C'\fR matches any decimal digit, or any of the lowercase letters between 'a' and 'f' inclusive. .PP \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN\*(C'\fR within a bracketed character class must be of the forms \f(CW\*(C`\eN{\f(CIname\f(CW}\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`\eN{U+\f(CIhex char\f(CW}\*(C'\fR, and \s-1NOT\s0 be the form that matches non-newlines, for the same reason that a dot \f(CW\*(C`.\*(C'\fR inside a bracketed character class loses its special meaning: it matches nearly anything, which generally isn't what you want to happen. .PP Examples: .PP .Vb 4 \& /[\ep{Thai}\ed]/ # Matches a character that is either a Thai \& # character, or a digit. \& /[^\ep{Arabic}()]/ # Matches a character that is neither an Arabic \& # character, nor a parenthesis. .Ve .PP Backslash sequence character classes cannot form one of the endpoints of a range.

For example, .PP .Vb 1 \& [01[:alpha:]%] .Ve .PP is valid and matches '0', '1', any alphabetic character, and the percent sign. .PP Perl recognizes the following \s-1POSIX\s0 character classes: .PP .Vb 10 \& alpha Any alphabetical character (e.g., [A\-Za\-z]). \& alnum Any alphanumeric character (e.g., [A\-Za\-z0\-9]). \& ascii Any character in the ASCII character set. \& blank A GNU extension, equal to a space or a horizontal tab ("\et"). \& cntrl Any control character.

Note [7]. .Ve .PP Like the Unicode properties, most of the \s-1POSIX\s0 properties match the same regardless of whether case-insensitive (\f(CW\*(C`/i\*(C'\fR) matching is in effect or not. The two exceptions are \f(CW\*(C`[:upper:]\*(C'\fR and \&\f(CW\*(C`[:lower:]\*(C'\fR.

That is, it is missing the nine characters \f(CW\*(C`[$+<=>^\`|~]\*(C'\fR.

This is different than strictly matching according to \&\f(CW\*(C`\ep{Punct}\*(C'\fR.

An example is .PP .Vb 1 \& /(?[ \ep{Thai} & \ep{Digit} ])/ .Ve .PP This will match all the digit characters that are in the Thai script. .PP This is an experimental feature available starting in 5.18, and is subject to change as we gain field experience with it.

This construct always has the \f(CW\*(C`/xx\*(C'\fR modifier turned on within it. .PP The available binary operators are: .PP .Vb 10 \& & intersection \& + union \& | another name for \*(Aq+\*(Aq, hence means union \& \- subtraction (the result matches the set consisting of those \& code points matched by the first operand, excluding any that \& are also matched by the second operand) \& ^ symmetric difference (the union minus the intersection). This \& is like an exclusive or, in that the result is the set of code \& points that are matched by either, but not both, of the \& operands. .Ve .PP There is one unary operator: .PP .Vb 1 \& ! complement .Ve .PP All the binary operators left associate; \f(CW"&"\fR is higher precedence than the others, which all have equal precedence. The unary operator right associates, and has highest precedence. Thus this follows the normal Perl precedence rules for logical operators. Use parentheses to override the default precedence and associativity. .PP The main restriction is that everything is a metacharacter. Thus, you cannot refer to single characters by doing something like this: .PP .Vb 1 \& /(?[ a + b ])/ # Syntax error! .Ve .PP The easiest way to specify an individual typable character is to enclose it in brackets: .PP .Vb 1 \& /(?[ [a] + [b] ])/ .Ve .PP (This is the same thing as \f(CW\*(C`[ab]\*(C'\fR.) You could also have said the equivalent: .PP .Vb 1 \& /(?[[ a b ]])/ .Ve .PP (You can, of course, specify single characters by using, \f(CW\*(C`\ex{...}\*(C'\fR, \&\f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR, etc.) .PP This last example shows the use of this construct to specify an ordinary bracketed character class without additional set operations. Note the white space within it. This is allowed because \f(CW\*(C`/xx\*(C'\fR is automatically turned on within this construct. .PP All the other escapes accepted by normal bracketed character classes are accepted here as well. .PP Because this construct compiles under \&\f(CW\*(C`use re \*(Aqstrict\*(C'\fR, unrecognized escapes that generate warnings in normal classes are fatal errors here, as well as all other warnings from these class elements, as well as some practices that don't currently warn outside \f(CW\*(C`re \*(Aqstrict\*(Aq\*(C'\fR. For example you cannot say .PP .Vb 1 \& /(?[ [ \exF ] ])/ # Syntax error! .Ve .PP You have to have two hex digits after a braceless \f(CW\*(C`\ex\*(C'\fR (use a leading zero to make two). These restrictions are to lower the incidence of typos causing the class to not match what you thought it would. .PP If a regular bracketed character class contains a \f(CW\*(C`\ep{}\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`\eP{}\*(C'\fR and is matched against a non-Unicode code point, a warning may be raised, as the result is not Unicode-defined. No such warning will come when using this extended form. .PP The final difference between regular bracketed character classes and these, is that it is not possible to get these to match a multi-character fold. Thus, .PP .Vb 1 \& /(?[ [\exDF] ])/iu .Ve .PP does not match the string \f(CW\*(C`ss\*(C'\fR. .PP You don't have to enclose \s-1POSIX\s0 class names inside double brackets, hence both of the following work: .PP .Vb 2 \& /(?[ [:word:] \- [:lower:] ])/ \& /(?[ [[:word:]] \- [[:lower:]] ])/ .Ve .PP Any contained \s-1POSIX\s0 character classes, including things like \f(CW\*(C`\ew\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`\eD\*(C'\fR respect the \f(CW\*(C`/a\*(C'\fR (and \f(CW\*(C`/aa\*(C'\fR) modifiers. .PP Note that \f(CW\*(C`(?[ ])\*(C'\fR is a regex-compile-time construct. Any attempt to use something which isn't knowable at the time the containing regular expression is compiled is a fatal error. In practice, this means just three limitations: .IP "1." 4 When compiled within the scope of \f(CW\*(C`use locale\*(C'\fR (or the \f(CW\*(C`/l\*(C'\fR regex modifier), this construct assumes that the execution-time locale will be a \s-1UTF\-8\s0 one, and the generated pattern always uses Unicode rules. What gets matched or not thus isn't dependent on the actual runtime locale, so tainting is not enabled. But a \f(CW\*(C`locale\*(C'\fR category warning is raised if the runtime locale turns out to not be \s-1UTF\-8.\s0 .IP "2." 4 Any user-defined property used must be already defined by the time the regular expression is compiled (but note that this construct can be used instead of such properties). .IP "3." 4 A regular expression that otherwise would compile using \f(CW\*(C`/d\*(C'\fR rules, and which uses this construct will instead use \f(CW\*(C`/u\*(C'\fR. Thus this construct tells Perl that you don't want \&\f(CW\*(C`/d\*(C'\fR rules for the entire regular expression containing it. .PP Note that skipping white space applies only to the interior of this construct. There must not be any space between any of the characters that form the initial \f(CW\*(C`(?[\*(C'\fR. Nor may there be space between the closing \f(CW\*(C`])\*(C'\fR characters. .PP Just as in all regular expressions, the pattern can be built up by including variables that are interpolated at regex compilation time. But its best to compile each sub-component. .PP .Vb 2 \& my $thai_or_lao = qr/(?[ \ep{Thai} + \ep{Lao} ])/; \& my $lower = qr/(?[ \ep{Lower} + \ep{Digit} ])/; .Ve .PP When these are embedded in another pattern, what they match does not change, regardless of parenthesization or what modifiers are in effect in that outer pattern. If you fail to compile the subcomponents, you can get some nasty surprises. For example: .PP .Vb 3 \& my $thai_or_lao = \*(Aq\ep{Thai} + \ep{Lao}\*(Aq; \& ... \& qr/(?[ \ep{Digit} & $thai_or_lao ])/; .Ve .PP compiles to .PP .Vb 1 \& qr/(?[ \ep{Digit} & \ep{Thai} + \ep{Lao} ])/; .Ve .PP But this does not have the effect that someone reading the source code would likely expect, as the intersection applies just to \f(CW\*(C`\ep{Thai}\*(C'\fR, excluding the Laotian. Its best to compile the subcomponents, but you could also parenthesize the component pieces: .PP .Vb 1 \& my $thai_or_lao = \*(Aq( \ep{Thai} + \ep{Lao} )\*(Aq; .Ve .PP But any modifiers will still apply to all the components: .PP .Vb 2 \& my $lower = \*(Aq\ep{Lower} + \ep{Digit}\*(Aq; \& qr/(?[ \ep{Greek} & $lower ])/i; .Ve .PP matches upper case things. So just, compile the subcomponents, as illustrated above. .PP Due to the way that Perl parses things, your parentheses and brackets may need to be balanced, even including comments. If you run into any examples, please submit them to <https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>, so that we can have a concrete example for this man page. .PP We may change it so that things that remain legal uses in normal bracketed character classes might become illegal within this experimental construct. One proposal, for example, is to forbid adjacent uses of the same character, as in \f(CW\*(C`(?[ [aa] ])\*(C'\fR. The motivation for such a change is that this usage is likely a typo, as the second \*(L"a\*(R" adds nothing.
