Regex

Hi All,

I am using regex to get a aphanumeric or numer from a string . I am using regex

/[a-zA-Z0-9]*\d+[a-zA-Z]/g; however it is returning only aphanumeric but ignoring numbers in the string .Please help me to get both aphanumeric or numeric value from a string.

Thanks in advance

var str1 = "this is a test r11MS0AB8";
var str2 = "this is a test 123Abc12CD";
var str3 = "this is a test 51571008";

var regex = /\b(?=[a-zA-Z0-9]*\d)[a-zA-Z0-9]+\b/;

var match1 = str1.match(regex);
var match2 = str2.match(regex);
var match3 = str3.match(regex);

gs.print(match1 ? match1[0] : 'No match'); // Output: r11MS0AB8
gs.print(match2 ? match2[0] : 'No match'); // Output: 123Abc12CD
gs.print(match3 ? match3[0] : 'No match'); // Output: 51571008

@Amit Pandey- Out of interest, why did you not point to my earlier response which provides the Regex and the solution rather than just repeat the same?

Hi @Amit Pandey @Robbie ,

I want to get the value as below and not separating the alphanumeric

123Abc12CD

Instead of aphanumeric it contains numerical then the regex should give the numerical value.

Then the regex should give the 5005123 value. String passed will be dynamically so the regex should give the alphanumeric or numeric based on the string

var str = "this is a test 5005123";

Hi @kali,

Use the below regex to extract the numeric characters from the String

var str = "this is a test 5005123";
var rgr = /(\d+)/g;
var data =str.match(rgr);
gs.print(data);

Result: 5005123

Hi @kali

(So my response is not lost in the thread)

Use the below code to separate the alphanumeric characters into separate strings:

var str = "this is a test 123Abc12CD";
var rgr = /([A-z]+)|(\d+)/g;
var data =str.match(rgr);
gs.print(data);

Result: this,is,a,test,123,Abc,12,CD
