Regex

Edit: to everyone who responded, I use regex infrequently enough that the knowledge never really crystalizes. By the time I need it for this one thing again, I haven't touched it in like a year.

Most of regex is pretty basic and easy to learn, it's the look ahead and look behind that are the killers imo

(?=) for positive lookahead and (?!) for negative lookahead. Stick a < in the middle for lookbehind.
