Regex String Manipulator
Intro
A regular expression (shortened as regex) is a sequence of characters that specifies a search pattern. A common use for regex is to match strings or parts of strings in order to do something with the result. For example, the default expression of a+
will return all instances of the letters a found within the input string. So the string Cavarly
would output aa
because the word Ca
va
lry has two a
s.
