I read a sentence:
This quick start gets you up to speed quickly with regular expressions.
Regular Expressions Quick Start
which briefly means that
This quick start helps you to speed quickly with regular expressions.
Nevertheless, the precise meaning of 'get up' is obscure for me to understand.
It's a metaphor?
Given a scene,I fell asleep without any knowledge of regular expression, then the quick start wakes me up quicker than normal speed?
