<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 577517 by <a href="/recipes/users/4174115/">Sunjay Varma</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/command/">command</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/debugging/">debugging</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/line/">line</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/python/">python</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/quick/">quick</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/re/">re</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/regex/">regex</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/testing/">testing</a>). Revision 2. </p> <p><strong><em>Is it possible to create a simple command line program that I can use to quickly test my regular expressions?</em></strong></p> <p>Yes it is. This simple regular expression tester uses Python's re module as well as others to quickly allow you to test your regular expression in one go.</p> <p>TODO:</p> <ul> <li>Add Support For Multiple Regular Expression Input</li> </ul> <p>Recent Changes:</p> <ul> <li>Made the output prettier with a little more whitespace. More bytes, but at least it's easier to read!</li> </ul>

<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 577021 by <a href="/recipes/users/2608421/">Stephen Chappell</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/enum/">enum</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/quick/">quick</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/short/">short</a>). Revision 9. </p> <p>If you want a small code snippet for enumerations in Python and the following code is sufficient for your needs, please go ahead and use it! Running the code is as simple as this: <code>STATE = enum('GET_QUIZ, GET_VERSE, TEACH')</code></p> <p>This recipe was edited and adapted after the author was inspired by seeing other, better enum recipes lying around.</p>
