So I've finished reading Jeffery Friedl's _Mastering Regular Expressions_
and while I don't need regex in PostgreSQL I know I'll do it for something
- eventually. The book makes a distinction between DFA, POSIX NFA and
Traditional NFA and then ascribes some properties and behaviours to each.
So what sort does PostgreSQL have?
