! Classes for matching character sequences against patterns specified by regular

!
! <p> An instance of the {@link java.util.regex.Pattern} class represents a
! regular expression that is specified in string form in a syntax similar to
! that used by Perl.
!
! <p> Instances of the {@link java.util.regex.Matcher} class are used to match
! character sequences against a given pattern. Input is provided to matchers via
! the {@link java.lang.CharSequence} interface in order to support matching
! against characters from a wide variety of input sources. </p>
!
! <p> Unless otherwise noted, passing a <tt>null</tt> argument to a method
! in any class or interface in this package will cause a
! {@link java.lang.NullPointerException NullPointerException} to be thrown.
