The most accurate regex tutorial ever created. Step 1: Open your editor. Step 2: Let your cat walk across the keyboard. Congratulations, you've just created a pattern that's equally as comprehensible as one you would have written yourself after 3 hours of trying. The best part? Both will somehow match email addresses from 1997 but fail on anything sent after 2015. Your cat might actually be better at this than you are.

Someone got tired of typing "if" and "else" and decided to invent their own yogurt-inspired programming language. Because clearly what the world needed was conditional statements that sound like they're being shouted by a street vendor. Next up in this linguistic masterpiece: "yap" as the print statement. Not console.log(), not print(), just... "yap" - like your code is an excited puppy telling you about its day. This is what happens when programmers work at 4 AM fueled by nothing but energy drinks and existential dread. Honestly, still more readable than some legacy code I've seen.

The perfect regex tutorial doesn't exi— Seriously though, the chaotic jumble of special characters in regex patterns might as well be created by a cat walking across your keyboard. That cryptic pattern /^([A-Z0-9_\.-]+) showing up in the second panel? Yep, looks exactly like what happens when my cat decides to "help" with coding. The brutal truth is that most regex patterns look completely indecipherable until you spend hours decoding them. And even then, you're never quite sure if they'll match what you want or suddenly match your entire database and crash your app. Pro tip: Always test your regex on a small sample before unleashing it on production data. Unless, of course, you prefer the chaos of letting your cat write it.
