helping with code in FLEX

[Moran Abilea]

hi there!
so i'm studying "compilation" course right now and i got for my homework this question (question number 4):
http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~anoop/teaching...l-2011/hw1.pdf
so i got stuck in question number 4 and i don't know how to solve it. i don't understand how can i make a regular expretion that can go over the words for example:
aa bb ab
so i need to get "aa bb" as a pair, and also "bb ab" as a pair, so how can i go back and "take" the bb for the second pair?

this code is needed to be written in flex
i need help urgent! this hw is need to be submitted this Saturday and that's my last question for this homework.
hope for any help!

I am not sure but I think this site is remotely related to C programming (C/C++).

There are enough clues in your PDF to at least spend a few days trying things out for yourself.

And no, it's not urgent at all (fixed).

Moved to Tech Board. Frankly though, you might get a better response elsewhere. As Al3 noted, the primary focus here tends to be on C and C++ (and sometimes C#, heh).

yeah it's urgent i need to submit it on saturday lol
and it's C code you are all right about that

Well nobody's going to do anything for you until you make some effort on your own.

Read your assignment - step 3 is half of step 4, for those with eyes to see it.

i had a lot more question and i've already done them (my assignment is different from the one that i've posted, only question number 4 is the same in my homework)
i don't know how to make the regular expression for seprating pair of words why don't you understand that?
for example if you still don't understand what is the problem which i don't know how to do: "aa bb cc" the pairs are "aa bb" "bb cc" when the "bb" is common for both of the string and i need to take this "bb" as considration for the pair of words.
if someone can show me a the regulat expression for example i can continue with this code, until then i'm stuck and can't continue this question
i'm not asking for doing my homework that's not the point! i just need help with this specific problem!

can anyone help me instead of laugh at me like i'm noob?
i just need help with the regular expression! which language i need to talk in order someone will understand this simple asking for help??!?!

FFS, you've got enough examples in your given literature to at least have a stab at doing this.

Cajoling someone into giving you the re won't help you AT ALL when your next assignment comes along and you still have no f'ing clue how to formulate a re to do something.

Stop whining, wasting time finding other forums to post on, and buckle down to some study, some experimenting and some testing.

Come back when you have some actual evidence of your efforts to post.
