I'm trying to match a pattern in powershell, any 3 letters followed by any 2 numbers, example: abc00
Trying:
'abc00' -match '[a-zA-Z]{3}[0-9]{2}'
returns TRUE
but :
'abcdefg0000' -match '[a-zA-Z]{3}[_0-9]{2}'
also returns TRUE.
How do I limit it so if the string doesn't contain exactly 3 letters and 3 numbers, it returns false?
Thank you!

For example, I would like to find ty in:
erytypotym5ty
etytyty
koetymitywty
or il in:
keililmil
ilwrilltyil5ile
^.*(\w{2}).*\1.*\1.*$.
The two letters (also digits and _; you could replace \w with [a-zA-Z], if you don't want them) will be in group 1.

My data has this struture:
ID 12354 linea+b 3
ID 15687 linea+b 7
ID 26894 linea+b 10
This is my proposition: r'ID\s+([0-9]+)\s+linea+b\s+([0-9]+)\s+'
The problem is with linea+b where python does not accept + as a string, it analyzes it as a metacharacter.
You should add \ in front of + to recognize the symbol, not as an increment
r'ID\s+([0-9]+)\s+linea\+b\s+([0-9]+)\s+'

I have a piece of text that I need to match anything between <latex and </latex> but not the text and an equivalent quantity of
Which given has the same divisor of <latex>5</latex> and an equivalent quantity of <latex>(5 + 2) \div 5</latex>?
I've tried with the regex \&lt\;(latex).+(latex)\&gt\;([^\s]) but it doesn't stop until the last </latex>in the line.
You need to use a non-greedy match
\&lt\;(latex).+?(latex)\&gt\;
