Pattern Class in Java

The Pattern class is part of the java.util.regex package and is used to compile regular expressions into pattern objects. These objects provide a reusable and efficient way to perform text matching and manipulation. The Pattern class offers several key methods for working with regular expressions, such as compiling regex with optional flags and splitting strings based on a pattern. In this lesson, we'll review the core methods of the Pattern class and see two simple examples demonstrating its usage without explicitly using the Matcher class.
