I attempted writing something similar when I was bored at work a year ago. I soon discovered how difficult this problem actually is. It's definitely beyond afternoon hacking. I'd love to get a peek at the secret sauce!
- a3_nm 14y agoThere is a paper which explains how it works: http://mllab.inginf.units.it/publications/international-conference-publications/automaticgenerationofregularexpressionsfromexampleswithgeneticprogramming http://mllab.inginf.units.it/publications/international-conf... Note that there are other (non-genetic) approaches to learn regular expressions (some are cited in the above paper).
