Basic Examples (2) 

Convert a pattern into bytecode object:

In[1]:=

Out[1]=

Get a textual representation of the generated bycode:

In[2]:=

Out[2]=

Create a virtual machine loaded with the compiled pattern:

In[3]:=

Out[3]=

Enable the tracing of pattern matcher execution:

In[4]:=

Out[4]=

Use the virtual machine to test whether an expression matches the pattern):

In[5]:=

Out[5]=

Get the resulting pattern matching bindings:

In[6]:=

Out[6]=

Reset the virtual machine to use it again:

In[7]:=

Out[7]=

Alternatively, a pattern can be used directly to match an expression:

In[8]:=

Out[8]=

Convert a pattern into a function:

In[9]:=

Out[9]=

The function can be used to match expressions:

In[10]:=

Out[10]=

The function behaves the same as a call to MatchQ:

In[11]:=

Out[11]=
