Though, 252 teaches real regular expressions, which are far more
limited than your standard perl-compatible regexp library. Of course,
it also teaches you how to recognize a regular language and prove that
it is so. And it gives you an idea of why you might sometimes want to
use a regular language instead of a more powerful one.
