Book Description
This open access book relies heavily on examples to systematically present the features of grep and regular expressions. The author recommends that readers manually type each example and experiment with them, stressing that understanding both the sample input strings and the resulting output is crucial.
The book assumes that the reader has prior experience working with the command line and bash shell, including familiarity with concepts such as file redirection and command pipelines.
To reinforce learning, the book also includes exercises designed to test the reader's understanding of the material.
