Unverifiedre.match() only attempts to match a pattern starting from the beginning of the string but does not require the match to reach the end of the string, effectively performing prefix matching.69% similarUnverifiedPrompt caching uses a strict prefix-matching strategy; once a mismatch occurs at a given position, all cached content after that position is invalidated.65% similarUnverifiedPrefix matching requires that only a contiguous sequence starting from the first token that is completely identical can hit the cache.65% similarUnverifiednl -b p'pattern' numbers only the lines matching that regular expression pattern; unmatched lines are still output but without line numbers.63% similarUnverifiedPrompt caching matches an identical token sequence backward from the beginning of the prompt, and the matched portion receives the discount; once the tokens diverge, subsequent content is billed at full price.62% similar
