Regular Expressions

Sets
• A set is of characters inside a pair of square brackets [ ] with a special
meaning.

• A hyphen between a pair of symbols enclosed in brackets is used to


indicate a range of characters; For example A–Z, a–z, or 0–9 for
uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numeric digits, respectively.

• A caret symbol between a pair of symbols enclosed in brackets is used


to indicate negation.

Set Description
[arn] Returns a match where one of the specified characters (a, r, or n) are present

[a-n] Returns a match for any lower case character, alphabetically between a and n

[^arn] Returns a match for any character EXCEPT a, r, and n

[0123] Returns a match where any of the specified digits (0, 1, 2, or 3) are present

[0-9] Returns a match for any digit between 0 and 9

[0-5][0-9] Returns a match for any two-digit numbers from 00 and 59

[a-zA-Z] Returns a match for any character alphabetically between a and z, lower case
OR upper case
[+] In sets, +, *, ., |, (), $,{} has no special meaning, so [+] means: return a match

print("Valid")
else:
print("Invalid")
