Yes! It does. {x,y} the x is the minimum, and the y is the maximum. {1,3} will match 1, 2, or 3. {5,} will match 5 OR MORE. {5} will match 5 EXACTLY. So, when the maximum is left blank ({x,}) it treats it as x OR MORE, and when the minimum and maximum don't exist ({x}) it treats it as x EXACTLY.

(Second word must be the same as the first word.) However, if use /(\w+)\s\(\w+)/ then a string containing any two different words seperated by a space will also match. So the purpose of using \1 is not just to save space.
34:48 For anyone confused why he didn't put a comma after the 2 for “two *or more*” it’s because it is in a lookahead: it only needs to see two digits and then it can stop looking because then we know there are at least two.
the solution at 34:58 is not correct and the original challenge throws an error if I use 5 instead of 6 when testing string '12345'. let me know if this is a misunderstanding 🙂
how many times am I going to forget everything and come back to learn it again? Step by step is simple. putting it together is hard, and remembering what random letters do is simply not going to happen. Anyone got a way to memorize this or am I SOL?
When I come to Lookaheads at 31:38 it starts to get complicated and confusing. Take the positive lookahead example: let quit = "qu"; let quRegex = /q(?=u)/; quit.match(quRegex); So, quote from 32:29: "It's first going to check for the 'q', and it's going to look ahead to make sure there is an 'u' LATER in the string." If that statement is correct then I would expect the following also works: let quit = "quit fooling around"; let quRegex = /q(?=fool)/; quit.match(quRegex); I expected it to work because I am taking "later in the string" as anything between the 'q' and the end of the string. So if the string is "quit fooling around" then I expect /q(?=fool)/ will also match. However, this is not the case. The lookahead actually just check the pattern NEXT to the 'q'. So only these would match: /q(?=u)/; /q(?=uit)/; /q(?=[a-zA-z ]*fool)/; Does that make sense or have I misunderstood something?
27:00 I think you missed something about the case when the username is longer than 2 characters. You made it so it has to start with two letters. I think the right regex would be this : /^[A-Za-z]{2,}\d*$|^[A-Za-z]\d{2,}$/ this checks is the username starts with at least 2 or more letters and then it allows you to have 0 or more numbers at the end. OR also checks if it starts with only one letter but has to have 2 or more numbers for it to be allowed.
I think at 36:40 there is mistake. He says that replacing \1 is just to avoid rewriting (\w+) However /(\w+)\s\1/ tests TRUE for "regex regex" but FALSE or "regex somethingelse" /(\w+)\s(\w+)/ tests TRUE for "regex regex" but TRUE for "regex somethingelse"
I wish there was like, an "expanded" version of regex where instead of symbols and letters, it's words with some aliases for common things. Writing Regex is one of those things I really wish I never have to figure out ever again. Calling the expressions regular is like making a programming language and calling it "better programming language"
i suppose i cant master immediately since regex is so lengthy, i hope to learn this on a need to learn basis. what i dont use i forget immediately. thanks BTW
when we have this regexp information stored in variables , and from what I understand in the console they are in an array, can I use map() or filter() syntax?
I think there's an error in the video explaining capture groups. At 36:36 the author says that this: /(\w+)\s\1/ and this: /(\w+)\s(\w+)/ Would have been the same thing, just shorter due to using \1 to refer to the previous capture group. These are not the same regex patterns. The first example will test whether the second string is a repeat of the first. The second example will allow two different strings to pass the test. Try both with "regex regex" and "regex rerex" to see the difference.

This is certainly an informative video however it is not a beginner's video due to how fast paced it is and the assumption that some prerequisite knowledge is present. In this case JavaScript. Nonetheless it is a good tutorial for people who want to refresh their knowledge on this particular area.
I guess specifying number of matches inside a look ahead uses different syntax than specifying number of matches not inside a look ahead? outside a look ahead {5} means exactly 5 but inside it means at minimum I take it?
Thanks for the video, but I think you are mistaken or misspoke on the reuse pattern using capture group. You stated that if you replace the \1 with the same capture pattern that it would be the same thing. I believe that is a mistake, for example use repeatstring. If you replaced the \1 with (\w+) then Yes it would match the string, but it would also match “regex testing” and I don’t think that is what you are trying to do.

Completely wrong! No one ever said one letter and two numbers should match!
Specs:
1) If there ARE numbers they must be at the end.
2) Letters can be lowercase and uppercase.
3) At least 2 characters long. Two-letter names can't have numbers.

What shouldn't: 'A', 'Ar1', 'aR12'.

10:07 Why aeiou in bracket don’t need comma ？
Very detailed and we'll put together!
Be me, find a video, Beau is the narrator, leave understanding everything about rejects
Why does I mean capitals and non capital?
Why does g mean flag all? And how do you know this?
it's a standard thingy big boi, all programming languages has some kind of regular expression
"g" stands for global match, "i" stands for ignore case
freeCodeCamp.org thanks👍🏻
thank u so much.
it was an useful course.
Hey, will I be able to use this in Java? I googled, it says lookbehind isn't supported in js, or something like that!
Thanks for the video, but I think you are mistaken or misspoke on the reuse pattern using capture group. You stated that if you replace the \1 with the same capture pattern that it would be the same thing. I believe that is a mistake, for example use repeatstring. If you replaced the \1 with (\w+) then Yes it would match the string, but it would also match “regex testing” and I don’t think that is what you are trying to do.
Sir do you have any course which can teach me about how to make dynamic graph using JavaScript
I want to make one project for my college.
In that I will compare 10 wealthiest people in the world between 1990 to 2019
Also we need to fetch data from another website for this project.
Please help and reply
Look into D3: th-cam.com/video/C4t6qfHZ6Tw/w-d-xo.html
Why not use comma instead of using let multiple times?
instead of :
let a = 0
let b = 1
let c = 2
let d = 3
use this:
let a = 0, b = 1, c = 2, d = 3;
It's not gonna fit in a single line. Think about mobile viewers
million thanks for this awesome video! it really taught me a lot.

anyone got a link for regex
5:28 what will happen if their is multiple match in a single line? Will it return array of matching strings?
i think just the first unless g is specified at the end of the regex..... right?
@@redps8611 Right.
