Using regular expression to extract full words from text

Question

I have been working with parsing data, I got a string like:

"Scottish Premier League (click here to open|close this coupon)"

I would like to extract "Scottish Premier League" with Scottish Matching Group 1 and Premier League Matching Group 2, using regular expression.

Please show me the way to do that using regular expression.

MatchCollection matchCol = reg.Matches("Scottish Premier League (click here to open|close this coupon)");

Answer 1

If you just want to match each specific word then your regex could be something like:

(Scottish) (Premier League)

If you want to match the first word then the next two:

([\w]+) ([\w]+ [\w]+)

Another way of writing this that accounts for multiple spaces between words is:

(\w+)\s+(\w+\s+\w+)

Answer 2

/（苏格兰）（英超联赛）/

Answer 3

Basic and direct:

$s =  "Scottish Premier League (click ... coupon)";
$s =~ m/(Scottish) (Premier League)/;
print "Match groups one and two: '$1' '$2'\n";

You probably wanted more generalized matching:

$s =  "Generalized Matching on a string (click ... coupon)";
$s =~ m/^(\S+)\s(.+)\s+\(click/;
print "Match groups one and two: '$1' '$2'\n";

These are Perl; be more specific next time.

Also, help yourself, use a tool, like RegexBuddy or Expresso .

Answer 4

鉴于您只给出了要应用正则表达式的一个字符串，因此很难确定该解决方案是否适用于您的其他各种情况：

/^(\w*) (.*) \(/
