Guide / 02
Quick guide
- Enter the expression body without surrounding slashes and put JavaScript flags in the separate field.
- Provide test text containing positive examples and deliberate counterexamples.
- Review each matched value and start index, revise the pattern, and rerun all counterexamples.
CHECK
Validate the result
With the pattern \d+ and text A12 B003, the output should contain two matches, 12 and 003, at different indices.
LIMITS
Know the limits
The engine follows JavaScript RegExp syntax and global matching is applied automatically. Capture-group details are not listed, and inefficient nested quantifiers can make a tab unresponsive on long input.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Should I include the / slashes around the regular expression?
No. Enter only the body that normally appears between the slashes, and put flags such as g, i, or m in the flags field.
