* What on earth is a "Lazy Quantifier"? I can't find mention of it anywhere else. [[User:72.220.174.159|72.220.174.159]] 20:24, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
** You must not have looked very far. In the content of regular expression quantifiers, lazy is the opposite of greedy. See http://www.regular-expressions.info/repeat.html for more info. I've also seen lazy quantifiers described as "non-greedy" or "reluctant". --[[User:Monger|Monger]] 01:17, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
*** Lazy is not the opposite of greedy, that is a poor name. Also, I've never seen it called "lazy" before, non-greedy is the standard term.[[User:Mathrick|mathrick]] ([[User talk:Mathrick|talk]]) 23:42, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
