Core Java Programming Course- Greedy and Lazy Matching

The video tutorial explains the concept of greedy and non-greedy matches in regular expressions, focusing on how quantifiers like '*', '+', and '{}' work. It demonstrates creating patterns to capture strings between specific characters using Java's Pattern and Matcher classes. The tutorial highlights the difference between greedy and non-greedy matches, showing how to make a match non-greedy by adding a '?' after the quantifier. It also covers resetting the matcher to find multiple matches in a string.
