I need help interpreting the meaning of a regular expression. I’m trying to understand to improve my skills with them…
The regular expression is:
`(?<!\\\\)u`
It is used in PHP with preg_replace.
This means, “Find a
uthat is not preceded by\\.” The?<!construct is the negative lookbehind, and the\\is an escaped\.
