The character classes in Java regular expression is defined using the square brackets "[ ]", this subexpression matches a single character from the specified or, set of possible characters. For example the regular expression [abc] matches a single character a or, b or, c.The union variant of the character class allows you to match a character from one of the specified ranges i.e. the expression [a-z[0-9]] matches a single character which is either a small alphabet (a-z) or a digit (0-9).Example Live Demoimport java.util.Scanner; import java.util.regex.Matcher; import java.util.regex.Pattern; public class RegexExample1 {    public static void main(String[] args) {     ...

The character classes in Java regular expression is defined using the square brackets "[ ]", this subexpression matches a single character from the specified or, set of possible characters.For example the regular expression [abc] matches a single character a or, b or, c. Similarly, "[a-z]" matches a single character from a to z.Similarly, the negation variant of the character class is defined as "[^ ]" (with ^ within the square braces), it matches a single character which is not in the specified or set of possible characters.For example the regular expression [^abc] matches a single character except a or, b ...

To match/search a input data with multiple lines −Get the input string.Split it into an array of tokens by passing "\r?" as parameter to the split method.Compile the required regular expression using the compile() method of the pattern class.Retrieve the matcher object using the matcher() method.In the for loop find matches in the each element (new line) of the array using the find() method.Reset the input of the matcher to the next element of the array using the reset() method.Example Live Demoimport java.util.regex.Matcher; import java.util.regex.Pattern; public class MatchingText{    public static void main(String[] args) {       String input = ...

Once you compile the required regular expression and retrieved the matcher object by passing the input string as a parameter to the matcher() method.You can replace all the matched parts of the input string with another str4ing using the replaceAll() method of the Matcher class.This method accepts a string (replacement string) and replaces all the matches in the input string with it and returns the result.Example 1 Live Demoimport java.util.Scanner; import java.util.regex.Matcher; import java.util.regex.Pattern; public class ReplaceAll{    public static void main(String[] args) {       Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);       System.out.println("Enter input text: ");     ...
