I often prefer writing non-trivial SQL as s-expressions (using Ryan's `sql` package).
I feel the same way about non-trivial regular expressions, and often use the `rx` macro in Emacs Lisp. In Racket, I tend not to write super complicated regular expressions. For example, I started to write a markdown parser that way but... um... yeah. I ended up using `parsack`. When I do use regexps in Racket, I almost always use them with `match` and the `pregexp` pattern, to bind the groups to identifiers. There is some space between trivial regexps and a full/"real" parser. Something like the `rx` macro, and it's also a match pattern, is something I could imagine using. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
