Regular expressions

C++11 provides support for regular expressions within the standard library in the header regex through a set of classes, iterators, and algorithms. Regular expressions are used to perform pattern matching within strings.

Example

The following example checks if an input string represents a valid email address.

#include <regex>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std::string_literals;
bool is_valid_email(const std::string& email) {
    auto pattern = R"(^[a-z0-9._%+-]+@[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,}$)"s;
    auto rx = std::regex{pattern, std::regex_constants::icase};
    return std::regex_match(email, rx);
};
int main() {
    auto test_email = [](const std::string& email) {
        std::cout << email
                  << " : is "
                  << (is_valid_email(email) ? "valid." : "not valid")
                  << "\n";
    };
    test_email("hans.muster@gmail.com"s);
    test_email("HANS.Muster@gmail.com"s);
    test_email("HANS.Muster@gmail.co.uk"s);
    test_email("Hans@Muster@gmail.c"s);
    test_email("HANS.Muster@gmail"s);
    return 0;
}

DIY

The example above verified a string by checking for a regex match. However the regex library allows also to search for matches and replace certain patterns. Try to solve the next exercise by using the right classes and algorithms from <regex> .

Implement the function according the documentation

#ifndef MODERN_CPP_REGEX_REPLACE_H
#define MODERN_CPP_REGEX_REPLACE_H
#include <string>
#include <regex>
namespace modern_cpp {
/**
 * Replaces all words in 'input' containing exactly one vovel with the same word,
 * but all non-vovels are replaced by *, e.g.
 * "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet" becomes "Lorem ipsum dolor *i* amet"
 * @param input text to "censor"
 * @return censored text
 */
std::string replace_words_with_one_vovel(const std::string& input) {
    return {};
};
}
#endif //MODERN_CPP_REGEX_REPLACE_H
