DESCRIPTION:Educators:\nSupriya Khedkar\, Toby Hodges (HD-HuB)\n\nDate:\n18
 /03/2020\n09:30 - 16:00\n\nLocation:\nEMBL Heidelberg\; Room 202\n\nConten
 ts:\nDo you often work with lots of data files on the computer\, are you o
 ften trying to spot particular files or lines of text in them that are imp
 ortant for you?\n\nIf so\, then using regular expressions could save you a
  lot of time and frustration!\n\nRegular expressions (regex/REs) are a lan
 guage designed to describe patterns of characters that you want to match i
 n a body of text. For example\, if you want to extract every Ensembl Gene 
 ID in a GFF file\, find tandem repeats in a large set of sequences\, or ex
 tract every email address in a large document\, regular expressions are th
 e perfect tool. Regular expressions are incorporated into a wide range of 
 software and programming languages\, and the workshop will include example
 s of their use on the UNIX command line and in R and Python.\n\nLearning g
 oals:\nThis workshop will provide an introduction to REs and cover some of
  the simple but powerful ways that these can be used to find patterns in l
 arge volumes of text data. The workshop will be interactive and driven by 
 examples to demonstrate how you might use regular expressions in your work
 .\n\nPrerequisites:\nParticipants are required to bring their own laptop t
 o the workshop\, with a text editor suitable for programming (e.g. Atom\, 
 Sublime Text\, VSCode\, Notepad++) installed.\n\nKeywords:\nUNIX command l
 ine\, R\, Python\n\nTools:\nUNIX command line\, R\, Python
