A Regular Expression (RegEx) is a sequence of characters that defines a search pattern. It is used for matching, searching, and manipulating strings based on specific patterns.
Key Uses of RegEx:
- Validation – Checking if input matches a specific format (e.g., email, phone number).
- Search & Replace – Finding and replacing text in documents or code.
- Data Extraction – Extracting specific parts of a string (e.g., extracting dates from text).
- String Parsing – Splitting text based on patterns.
Regular Expressions (RegEx) can help in many ways, especially in text processing, validation, and automation.
