Python ITP Group Regular Expressions Tutorial

I'll be working from these notes:

• Regular expressions (I used to use these notes in RWET)
• Strings and regular expressions (from a class I teach at Columbia, "Data and Databases"---scroll down to "regular expressions")

Source texts we'll use (download these to your working directory):

• Sea Rose by H.D.
• SOWPODS (a scrabble dictionary)
• All of the subject lines from the EnronSent corpus (more on EnronSent)
