Entity_Storage VS py_regular_expressions

after a few-month hiatus I've been getting back into playing around with Jonathan Blow's closed-beta compiler and enjoying it immensely, especially now that I've finally gotten around to delving into the metaprogramming stuff. I made a dead-simple entity system (not ECS) module [0], and while it's definitely not ready for production, it seems to be exactly what I always wanted to make in C/C++ for my past projects, but never was able to (elegantly, at least). I am very pleased with this language even though it's still definitely a beta project (odd WIP syntax here and there, very occasional mysterious compiler bugs. considering maybe doing a writeup of my experience so far...

These exercises have been adapted from my Understanding Python re(gex)? ebook (free to read online).

This new version is a TUI app built with Textual. Previous one was written using `tkinter` [0] and covered only four of the `re` functions.

Now, any valid Python expression is accepted as a solution. Both the builtin `re` and third-party `regex` modules are covered.

These exercises have been adapted from my Understanding Python re(gex)? ebook [1] (free to read online, and PDF/EPUB versions are free till the end of this month).

I'd appreciate your feedback, happy learning :)

Last year, I did a similar project for 75 Python regular expressions exercises: https://github.com/learnbyexample/py_regular_expressions/tre...

That was with Tkinter. I'm planning to update the regex book next year (to add new features like possessive quantifiers and other misc changes). Along with this update, I'll probably make a TUI version and add support for rest of the exercises.

If you are interested in Python regex, here's my tkinter app with 75 interactive exercises: https://github.com/learnbyexample/py_regular_expressions/tre...

This assumes you already know Python regex. If you'd like learn first, see my free ebook: https://learnbyexample.github.io/py_regular_expressions/

I have an entire book dedicated for learning regex from the basics, with hundreds of examples and exercises. I cover both re and third-party regex module. It is free to read online: https://learnbyexample.github.io/py_regular_expressions/
