import "regexp"

// regexp.ReplaceAll and regexp.ReplaceAllLiteral have the same signature:
//   func ReplaceAllLiteral( pattern, src, repl )
//   func ReplaceAll( pattern, src, repl )

// If repl contains only characters that match themselves when used in regular
// expressions then the functions behave identically and return the same value:
replaceAll: regexp.ReplaceAll("[aeiou]", "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog", "X")
replaceAll: regexp.ReplaceAllLiteral("[aeiou]", "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog", "X")

// Examples in this guide use _src as their source string.
_src: "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"

// regexp.ReplaceAll's repl parameter is a template, which may refer to regular
// expression elements such as match indexes and capture groups that were set
// up in the pattern parameter. See related content, below, for full
// documentation of the template format.
// Here we search for the letter "o", followed by one of "uvwxyz", and replace
// both characters with the second of the pair.
oPairReplaceAll: regexp.ReplaceAll("o([uvwxyz])", _src, "$1")

// regexp.ReplaceAllLiteral's repl parameter is used literally. Use it when the
// text to be inserted contains regular expression related characters.
// Here we insert the literal string "$1":
oPairReplaceAllLiteral: regexp.ReplaceAllLiteral("o([uvwxyz])", _src, "$1")

// This example combines several regular expression features.
// We search for a vowel, followed by any two letters, at the end of a word.
// We remove the vowel by replacing the entire match with the contents of a
// named capture group that contains only the two trailing letters.
regexReplaceAll: regexp.ReplaceAll("[aeiou](?P<twoLetters>\\w{2}\\b)", _src, "$twoLetters")
