Of course, if you let your programming language evaluate something numerically rather than try to match it against a regular expression, you'll save headaches and CPU.

So this matches everything above 0 and below 1. This matches any number that starts with one or more 0 characters (replace + with * to match zero or more zeros, i.e.25), followed by a period, followed by a string of digits that includes at least one that is not a 0. Parentheses are used to group multiple expressions separated by or-bars.Īnd the second part: 0+\.** For purposes of evaluation of this expression, It has higher precedence than everything else, and effectively joins two regular expressions together. The pipe character is an " or-bar" in this context. The 0* at the start handles leading zeros, so 005 = 5. In this case, all occurrences of the value arg1 are replaced. occ: Positive numeric literal of type INT1, INT2, or INT4 greater than or equal to 1.
So our 2.0 would be matched, but 0.25 would not. res: positive numeric literal greater than 0 and less than or equal to 1333. This matches any integer or any floating point number above 1. The opening parenthesis is there because of the or-bar, below. The caret matches the null at the beginning of the line, so preceding your regex with a caret anchors it to the beginning of the line. Let's break the expression down into parts that are easier to digest. The same thing can be expressed in Basic RE, but almost everything understands ERE these days. Note that this second one is an Extended RE. And while we're at it, we'll add support for leading zeros on integers (i.e. 0.25), as well as case where your pattern has a decimal part that is 0.
2.5 or 3.3̅), cases where your pattern is between 0 and 1 (i.e. But research shows the reverse is true: unhealthy men actually marry earlier, are less likely to divorce, and are more likely to remarry following divorce or bereavement than healthy men. Any other number must be greater than or equal 11. Hi guys, I’m a bit stumped on a regular expression problem. Patients greater than 45 kg: 500 mg orally on day 1, then 250 mg orally once a day on days 2 through 5 Patients less than 45 kg: 10 mg/kg orally on day 1, then 5 mg/kg orally once a day for 4 additional days Use: Treatment of bacillary angiomatosis and cat scratch disease. If you want to match real numbers (floats) rather than integers, you need to handle the case above, along with normal decimal numbers (i.e. About Than Regex Than Less For And Greater. I don't know how MVC is relevant, but if your ID is an integer, this BRE should do: ^*$
