String Objects

Strings in DolphinDB use UTF-8 character encoding. We also have the following functions that support the use of regular expressions: regexFind, regexReplace, regexCount.

Note that regular expression standards used by DolphinDB vary depending on the operating system, as follows:

  • For Linux, Extended Regular Expressions (ERE) based on the POSIX standard is employed.

  • For Windows, ERE based on the C++ standard library is used.
