Re: Mnemonic for begin/end chars in regexes

Bonjour Smonff,

I always used a masonry analogy: you first start building the roof ^ and only at the end you get paid $

Now that I see it it can be semplified as: for any work you do money come as last

There are no rules, there are no thumbs..
Reinvent the wheel, then learn The Wheel; may be one day you reinvent one of THE WHEELS.

start building the roof ^ and only at the end you get paid $ That's great and ^ certainly is the roof, while $ to me looks like a fishing hook, down in the murky waters :-) Edited to add: ...the fishing hook of course marks the end of the line, fishing line, yes.
