Std.Regex.search
1 declaration
fn
search: &Std.Regex.Regex -> Str -> Result[Option[Std.Regex.Match], Std.Regex.RegexError]This is a callable function.
What it does
Search from each position in turn, reporting a search that gave up.
The leftmost match wins, which is what every other tool answers and what a
reader replacing text expects: a later match that happens to be longer does
not displace an earlier one.
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.
- & borrows a value for this call instead of moving or copying it.
- Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
- Option holds Some(value) or None when no value is available.
- Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
