Std.Regex.escape

1 declaration

fn

escape: Str -> Str

This is a callable function.

What it does

Text quoted so a pattern matches it exactly.

What a caller reaches for when part of a pattern comes from somewhere else —

a name typed into a form, a value read from a file — which is otherwise a

way to have someone else's text change what the pattern means.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
