I have a requirement where user can input only between 0.01 to 100.00 in a textbox. I am using regex to limit the data entered. However, I cannot enter a decimal point, like 95.83 in the regex. Can someone help me fix the below regex?
(^100([.]0{1,2})?)$|(^\d{1,2}([.]\d{1,2})?)$
if I copy paste the value, it passes. But unable to type a decimal point.
Please advice.

The regex
You can use the following regex:
See regex in use here
^(?:(?:\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0)(?:\.\d{0,2})?|0{0,2}\.(?:\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0)|10{2}(?:\.0{0,2})?)$
How it works
^(?:...|...|...)$ this anchors the pattern to ensure it matches the entire string
^ assert position at the start of the line
(?:...|...|...) non-capture group - used to group multiple alternations
$ assert position at the end of the line
(?:\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0)(?:\.\d{0,2})? first option
(?:\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0) match either of the following
\d?[1-9] optionally match any digit, then match a digit in the range of 1 to 9
[1-9]0 match any digit between 1 and 9, followed by 0
(?:\.\d{0,2})? optionally match the following
\. this character . literally
\d{0,2} match any digit between 0 and 2 times
0{0,2}\.(?:\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0) second option
0{0,2} match 0 between 0 and 2 times
\. match this character . literally
(?:\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0) match either of the following options
\d?[1-9] optionally match any digit, then match a digit in the range of 1 to 9
[1-9]0 match any digit between 1 and 9, followed by 0
10{2}(?:\.0{0,2})? third option
10{2} match 100
(?:\.0{0,2})? optionally match ., followed by 0 between 0 and 2 times
How it works (in simpler terms)
With the above descriptions for each alternation, this is what they will match:
Any two-digit number other than 0 or 00, optionally followed by any two-digit decimal.
In terms of a range, it's 1.00-99.99 with:
Optional leading zero: 01.00-99.99
Optional decimal: 01-99, or 01.-99, or 01.0-01.99
Any two-digit decimal other than 0 or 00
In terms of a range, it's .01-.99 with:
Optional leading zeroes: 00.01-00.99 or 0.01-0.99
Literally 100, followed by optional decimals: 100, or 100., or 100.0, or 100.00
The code
RegExp vs /pattern/
In your code, you can use either of the following options (replacing pattern with the pattern above):
new RegExp('pattern')
/pattern/
The first option above uses a string literal. This means that you must escape the backslash characters in the string in order for the pattern to be properly read:
^(?:(?:\\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0)(?:\\.\\d{0,2})?|0{0,2}\\.(?:\\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0)|10{2}(?:\\.0{0,2})?)$
The second option above allows you to avoid this and use the regex as is.
Here's a fork of your code using the second option.
Usability Issues
Please note that you'll run into a couple of usability issues with your current method of tackling this:
The user cannot erase all the digits they've entered. So if the user enters 100, they can only erase 00 and the 1 will remain. One option to resolving this is to make the entire non-capture group (with the alternations) optional by adding a ? after it. Whilst this does solve that issue, you now need to keep two regular expression patterns - one for user input and the other for validation. Alternatively, you could just test if the input is an empty string to allow it (but not validate the form until the field is filled.
The user cannot enter a number beginning with .. This is because we don't allow the input of . to go through your validation steps. The same rule applies here as the previous point made. You can allow it though if the value is . explicitly or add a new alternation of |\.
Similarly to my last point, you'll run into the issue for .0 when a user is trying to write something like .01. Again here, you can run the same test.
Similarly again, 0 is not valid input - same applies here.
An change to the regex that covers these states (0, ., .0, 0., 0.0, 00.0 - but not .00 alternatives) is:
^(?:(?:\d?[1-9]?|[1-9]0)(?:\.\d{0,2})?|0{0,2}\.(?:\d?[1-9]?|[1-9]0)|10{2}(?:\.0{0,2})?)$
Better would be to create logic for these cases to match them with a separate regex:
^0{0,2}\.?0?$
Usability Fixes
With the changes above in mind, your function would become:
See code fork here
handleChange(e) {
console.log(e.target.value)
const r1 = /^(?:(?:\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0)(?:\.\d{0,2})?|0{0,2}\.(?:\d?[1-9]|[1-9]0)|10{2}(?:\.0{0,2})?)$/;
const r2 = /^0{0,2}\.?0?$/
if (r1.test(e.target.value)) {
this.setState({
[e.target.name]: e.target.value
});
} else if (r2.test(e.target.value)) {
// Value is invalid, but permitted for usability purposes
this.setState({
[e.target.name]: e.target.value
});
}
}
This now allows the user to input those values, but also allows us to invalidate them if the user tries to submit it.
Using the range 0.01 to 100.00 without padding is this (non-factored):
0\.(?:0[1-9]|[1-9]\d)|[1-9]\d?\.\d{2}|100\.00
Expanded
# 0.01 to 0.99
0 \.
(?:
0 [1-9]
| [1-9] \d
)
|
# 1.00 to 99.99
[1-9] \d? \.
\d{2}
|
# 100.00
100 \.
00
It can be made to have an optional cascade if incremental partial form
should be allowed.
That partial is shown here for the top regex range :
^(?:0(?:\.(?:(?:0[1-9]?)|[1-9]\d?)?)?|[1-9]\d?(?:\.\d{0,2})?|1(?:0(?:0(?:\.0{0,2})?)?)?)?$
The code line with stringed regex :
const newRegExp = new RegExp("^(?:0(?:\\.(?:(?:0[1-9]?)|[1-9]\\d?)?)?|[1-9]\\d?(?:\\.\\d{0,2})?|1(?:0(?:0(?:\\.0{0,2})?)?)?)?$");
_________________________
The regex 'partial' above requires the input to be blank or to start
with a digit. It also doesn't allow 1-9 with a preceding 0.
If that is all to be allowed, a simple mod is this :
^(?:0{0,2}(?:\.(?:(?:0[1-9]?)|[1-9]\d?)?)?|(?:[1-9]\d?|0[1-9])(?:\.\d{0,2})?|1(?:0(?:0(?:\.0{0,2})?)?)?)?$
which allows input like the following:
(It should be noted that doing this requires allowing the dot . as
a valid input but could be converted to 0. on the fly to be put
inside the input box.)
.1
00.01
09.90
01.
01.11
00.1
00
.
Stringed version :
"^(?:0{0,2}(?:\\.(?:(?:0[1-9]?)|[1-9]\\d?)?)?|(?:[1-9]\\d?|0[1-9])(?:\\.\\d{0,2})?|1(?:0(?:0(?:\\.0{0,2})?)?)?)?$"
I work with text files, and I need to be able to see when the gps (last 3 columns of csv) "hangs up" for more than a few lines.
So for example, usually, part of a text file looks like this:
5451,1667,180007,35.7397387,97.8161897,375.8
5448,1053z,180006,35.7397407,97.8161814,375.7
5444,1667,180005,35.7397445,97.8161674,375.6
5439,1668,180004,35.7397483,97.8161526,375.5
5435,1669,180003,35.7397518,97.8161379,375.5
5431,1669,180002,35.7397554,97.8161269,375.6
5426,1054z,180001,35.7397584,97.8161115,375.6
5420,1670,175959,35.7397649,97.8160931,375.9
But sometimes there is an error with the gps and it looks like this:
36859,1598,202603.00,35.8867316,99.2515545,555.700
36859,1598,202608.00,35.8867316,99.2515545,555.700
36859,1142z,202610.00,35.8867316,99.2515545,555.700
36859,1597,202612.00,35.8867316,99.2515545,555.700
36859,1597,202614.00,35.8867316,99.2515545,555.700
36859,1596,202616.00,35.8867316,99.2515545,555.700
36859,1595,202618.00,35.8867316,99.2515545,555.700
I need to be able to figure out a way to search for matching strings of 7 different numbers, (the decimal portion of the gps) but so far I've only been able to figure out how to search for repeating #s or consecutive numbers.
Any ideas?
If you were to find such repetitions in an editor (such as Notepad++), you could use the following regex to find 4 or more repeating lines:
([^,]+(?:,[^,]+){2})\v+(?:(?:[^,]+,){3}\1(?:\v+|$)){3,}
To go a bit into detail
([^,]+(?:,[^,]+){2})\v+ is a group consisting of one or more non-commas followed by comma and another one or more non-commas followed by a vertical space (linebreak), that is not part of the group (e.g. 1,1,1\n)
(?:[^,]+,){3} matches one or more non-commas followed by comma, three times (your columns that don't have to be considered)
\1 is a backreference to group 1, matching if it contains exactly the same as group 1
(?:\v+|$) matches either another vertical whitespaces or the end of the text
{3,} for 3 or more repetitions - increase it if you want more
Here you can see, how it works
However, if you are using any programming language to check this, I wouldn't walk on the path of regex, as checking for those repetitions can be done a lot easier. Here is one example in Python, I hope you can adopt it for your needs:
oldcoords = [0,0,0]
lines = [line.rstrip('\n') for line in open(r'C:\temp\gps.csv')]
for line in lines:
gpscoords = line.split(',')[3:6]
if gpscoords == oldcoords:
repetitions += 1
else:
oldcoords = gpscoords
repetitions = 0
if repetitions == 4: #or however you define more than a few
print(', '.join(gpscoords) + ' is repeated')
If you can use perl, and if I understood you:
perl -ne 'm/^[^,]*,[^,]*,[^,]*,([^,]*,[^,]*,[^,]*$)/g; $current_line=$1; ++$line_number; if ($prev_line==$current_line){$equals++} else {if ($equals>=6){ print "Last three fields in lines ".($line_number-$equals-1)." to ".($line_number-1)." are equals to:\n$prev_line" } ; $equals=0}; $prev_line=$current_line' < onlyreplacethiswithyourfilepath should do the trick.
Sample output:
Last three fields in lines 1 to 7 are equals to:
35.8867316,99.2515545,555.700
Last three fields in lines 16 to 22 are equals to:
37.8782116,99.7825545,572.810
Last three fields in lines 31 to 44 are equals to:
36.6868916,77.2594245,581.358
Last three fields in lines 57 to 63 are equals to:
35.5128764,71.2874545,575.631
So, I've built a regex which follows this:
4!a2!a2!c[3!c]
which is translated to
4 alpha character followed by
2 alpha characters followed by
2 characters followed by
3 optional character
this is a standard format for SWIFT BIC code HSBCGB2LXXX
my regex to pull this out of string is:
(?<=:32[^:]:)(([a-zA-Z]{4}[a-zA-Z]{2})[0-9][a-zA-Z]{1}[X]{3})
Now this is targeting a specific tag (32) and works, however, I'm not sure if it's the cleanest, plus if there are any characters before H then it fails.
the string being matched against is:
:32B:HsBfGB4LXXXHELLO
the following returns HSBCGB4LXXX, but this:
:32B:2HsBfGB4LXXXHELLO
returns nothing.
EDIT
For clarity. I have a string which contains multiple lines all starting with :2xnumber:optional letter (eg, :58A:) i want to specify a line to start matching in and return a BIC from anywhere in the line.
EDIT
Some more example data to help:
:20:ABCDERF Z
:23B:CRED
:32A:140310AUD2120,
:33B:AUD2120,
:50K:/111222333
Mr Bank of Dad
Dads house
England
:52D:/DBEL02010987654321
address 1
address 2
:53B:/HSBCGB2LXXX
:57A://AU124040
AREFERENCE
:59:/44556677
A line which HSBCGB2LXXX contains a BIC
:70:Another line of data
:71A:Even more
Ok, so I need to pass in as a variable the tag 53 or 59 and return the BIC HSBCGB2LXXX only!
Your regex can be simplified, and corrected to allow a character before the H, to:
:32[^:]:.?([a-zA-Z]{6}\d[a-zA-Z]XXX)
The changes made were:
Lost the look behind - just make it part of the match
Inserting .? meaning "optional character"
([a-zA-Z]{4}[a-zA-Z]{2}) ==> [a-zA-Z]{6} (4+2=6)
[0-9] ==> \d (\d means "any digit")
[X]{3} ==> XXX (just easier to read and less characters)
Group 1 of the match contains your target
I'm not quite sure if I understand your question completely, as your regular expression does not completely match what you have described above it. For example, you mentioned 3 optional characters, but in the regexp you use 3 mandatory X-es.
However, the actual regular expression can be further cleaned:
instead of [a-zA-Z]{4}[a-zA-Z]{2}, you can simply use [a-zA-Z]{6}, and the grouping parentheses around this might be unnecessary;
the {1} can be left out without any change in the result;
the X does not need surrounding brackets.
All in all
(?<=:32[^:]:)([a-zA-Z]{6}[0-9][a-zA-Z]X{3})
is shorter and matches in the very same cases.
If you give a better description of the domain, probably further improvements are also possible.
Well I tried to sum it up in the title.
I need a reg ex to match numbers and commas, but not numbers starting with 0 unless it's 0,number
My users enter hours in a field, so they have to be able to enter 0,3 hours, but they are not allowed to write 002 or 09.
I have this reg ex
^[0-9]*\,?[0-9]+$
How can I extend it to not allow start with 0 unless the 0 is followed by a comma
Another one :)
^(0|[1-9]\d*(|,\d+)|0,\d+)$
This one should suit your needs:
^0,\d*[1-9]|[1-9]\d*$
either 0,\d*[1-9]: a 0, followed by a comma, followed by 0 or more digit, followed by one digit between 1 and 9
or [1-9]\d*: a digit between 1 and 9, followed by zero or more digit
Matches:
0,3
0,03
3
30
Doesn't match:
0
0,0
0,30
03
You don't need to force everything into a single regex to do this.
It will be far clearer if you use multiple regexes, each one making a specific check.
if ( /^[0-9]+,[0-9]+$/ || /^[1-9][0-9]*$/ )
Here we are making two different checks. "Either this one matches, or the other one matches", and then you don't have to jam both conditions into one regex.
Let the expressive form of your host language be used, rather than trying to cram logic into a regex.
I've been struggling with finding a suitable solution :-
I need an regex expression that will match all UK phone numbers and mobile phones.
So far this one appears to cover most of the UK numbers:
^0\d{2,4}[ -]{1}[\d]{3}[\d -]{1}[\d -]{1}[\d]{1,4}$
However mobile numbers do not work with this regex expression or phone-numbers written in a single solid block such as 01234567890.
Could anyone help me create the required regex expression?
[\d -]{1}
is blatently incorrect: a digit OR a space OR a hyphen.
01000 123456
01000 is not a valid UK area code. 123456 is not a valid local number.
It is important that test data be real area codes and real number ranges.
^\s*(?(020[7,8]{1})?[ ]?[1-9]{1}[0-9{2}[ ]?[0-9]{4})|(0[1-8]{1}[0-9]{3})?[ ]?[1-9]{1}[0-9]{2}[ ]?[0-9]{3})\s*|[0-9]+[ ]?[0-9]+$
The above pattern is garbage for many different reasons.
[7,8] matches 7 or comma or 8. You don't need to match a comma.
London numbers also begin with 3 not just 7 or 8.
London 020 numbers aren't the only 2+8 format numbers; see also 023, 024, 028 and 029.
[1-9]{1} simplifies to [1-9]
[ ]? simplifies to \s?
Having found the intial 0 once, why keep searching for it again and again?
^(0....|0....|0....|0....)$ simplifies to ^0(....|....|....|....)$
Seriously. ([1]|[2]|[3]|[7]){1} simplifies to [1237] here.
UK phone numbers use a variety of formats: 2+8, 3+7, 3+6, 4+6, 4+5, 5+5, 5+4. Some users don't know which format goes with which number range and might use the wrong one on input. Let them do that; you're interested in the DIGITS.
Step 1: Check the input format looks valid
Make sure that the input looks like a UK phone number. Accept various dial prefixes, +44, 011 44, 00 44 with or without parentheses, hyphens or spaces; or national format with a leading 0. Let the user use any format they want for the remainder of the number: (020) 3555 7788 or 00 (44) 203 555 7788 or 02035-557-788 even if it is the wrong format for that particular number. Don't worry about unbalanced parentheses. The important part of the input is making sure it's the correct number of digits. Punctuation and spaces don't matter.
^\(?(?:(?:0(?:0|11)\)?[\s-]?\(?|\+)44\)?[\s-]?\(?(?:0\)?[\s-]?\(?)?|0)(?:\d{5}\)?[\s-]?\d{4,5}|\d{4}\)?[\s-]?(?:\d{5}|\d{3}[\s-]?\d{3})|\d{3}\)?[\s-]?\d{3}[\s-]?\d{3,4}|\d{2}\)?[\s-]?\d{4}[\s-]?\d{4}|8(?:00[\s-]?11[\s-]?11|45[\s-]?46[\s-]?4\d))(?:(?:[\s-]?(?:x|ext\.?\s?|\#)\d+)?)$
The above pattern matches optional opening parentheses, followed by 00 or 011 and optional closing parentheses, followed by an optional space or hyphen, followed by optional opening parentheses. Alternatively, the initial opening parentheses are followed by a literal + without a following space or hyphen. Any of the previous two options are then followed by 44 with optional closing parentheses, followed by optional space or hyphen, followed by optional 0 in optional parentheses, followed by optional space or hyphen, followed by optional opening parentheses (international format). Alternatively, the pattern matches optional initial opening parentheses followed by the 0 trunk code (national format).
The previous part is then followed by the NDC (area code) and the subscriber phone number in 2+8, 3+7, 3+6, 4+6, 4+5, 5+5 or 5+4 format with or without spaces and/or hyphens. This also includes provision for optional closing parentheses and/or optional space or hyphen after where the user thinks the area code ends and the local subscriber number begins. The pattern allows any format to be used with any GB number. The display format must be corrected by later logic if the wrong format for this number has been used by the user on input.
The pattern ends with an optional extension number arranged as an optional space or hyphen followed by x, ext and optional period, or #, followed by the extension number digits. The entire pattern does not bother to check for balanced parentheses as these will be removed from the number in the next step.
At this point you don't care whether the number begins 01 or 07 or something else. You don't care whether it's a valid area code. Later steps will deal with those issues.
Step 2: Extract the NSN so it can be checked in more detail for length and range
After checking the input looks like a GB telephone number using the pattern above, the next step is to extract the NSN part so that it can be checked in greater detail for validity and then formatted in the right way for the applicable number range.
^\(?(?:(?:0(?:0|11)\)?[\s-]?\(?|\+)(44)\)?[\s-]?\(?(?:0\)?[\s-]?\(?)?|0)([1-9]\d{1,4}\)?[\s\d-]+)(?:((?:x|ext\.?\s?|\#)\d+)?)$
Use the above pattern to extract the '44' from $1 to know that international format was used, otherwise assume national format if $1 is null.
Extract the optional extension number details from $3 and store them for later use.
Extract the NSN (including spaces, hyphens and parentheses) from $2.
Step 3: Validate the NSN
Remove the spaces, hyphens and parentheses from $2 and use further RegEx patterns to check the length and range and identify the number type.
These patterns will be much simpler, since they will not have to deal with various dial prefixes or country codes.
The pattern to match valid mobile numbers is therefore as simple as
^7([45789]\d{2}|624)\d{6}$
Premium rate is
^9[018]\d{8}$
There will be a number of other patterns for each number type: landlines, business rate, non-geographic, VoIP, etc.
By breaking the problem into several steps, a very wide range of input formats can be allowed, and the number range and length for the NSN checked in very great detail.
Step 4: Store the number
Once the NSN has been extracted and validated, store the number with country code and all the other digits with no spaces or punctuation, e.g. 442035557788.
Step 5: Format the number for display
Another set of simple rules can be used to format the number with the requisite +44 or 0 added at the beginning.
The rule for numbers beginning 03 is
^44(3\d{2})(\d{3])(\d{4})$
formatted as
0$1 $2 $3 or as +44 $1 $2 $3
and for numbers beginning 02 is
^44(2\d)(\d{4})(\d{4})$
formatted as
(0$1) $2 $3 or as +44 $1 $2 $3
The full list is quite long. I could copy and paste it all into this thread, but it would be hard to maintain that information in multiple places over time. For the present the complete list can be found at: http://aa-asterisk.org.uk/index.php/Regular_Expressions_for_Validating_and_Formatting_GB_Telephone_Numbers
Given that people sometimes write their numbers with spaces in random places, you might be better off ignoring the spaces all together - you could use a regex as simple as this then:
^0(\d ?){10}$
This matches:
01234567890
01234 234567
0121 3423 456
01213 423456
01000 123456
But it would also match:
01 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0
So you may not like it, but it's certainly simpler.

Notice how the spaces and dashes are optional and can be part of it.. also it is now divided into two capture groups called area_code and tel_no to break it down and easier to extract.
Strip all whitespace and non-numeric characters and then do the test. It'll be musch , much easier than trying to account for all the possible options around brackets, spaces, etc.
Try the following:
#"^(([0]{1})|([\+][4]{2}))([1]|[2]|[3]|[7]){1}\d{8,9}$"
Starts with 0 or +44 (for international) - I;m sure you could add 0044 if you wanted.
It then has a 1, 2, 3 or 7.
It then has either 8 or 9 digits.

It's not a single regex, but there's sample code from Braemoor Software that is simple to follow and fairly thorough.
The JS version is probably easiest to read. It strips out spaces and hyphens (which I realise you said you can't do) then applies a number of positive and negative regexp checks.
Start by stripping the non-numerics, excepting a + as the first character.
(Javascript)
var tel=document.getElementById("tel").value;
tel.substr(0,1).replace(/[^+0-9]/g,'')+tel.substr(1).replace(/[^0-9]/g,'')
The regex below allows, after the international indicator +, any combination of between 7 and 15 digits (the ITU maximum) UNLESS the code is +44 (UK). Otherwise if the string either begins with +44, +440 or 0, it is followed by 2 or 7 and then by nine of any digit, or it is followed by 1, then any digit except 0, then either seven or eight of any digit. (So 0203 is valid, 0703 is valid but 0103 is not valid). There is currently no such code as 025 (or in London 0205), but those could one day be allocated.
/(^\+(?!44)[0-9]{7,15}$)|(^(\+440?|0)(([27][0-9]{9}$)|(1[1-9][0-9]{7,8}$)))/
Its primary purpose is to identify a correct starting digit for a non-corporate number, followed by the correct number of digits to follow. It doesn't deduce if the subscriber's local number is 5, 6, 7 or 8 digits. It does not enforce the prohibition on initial '1' or '0' in the subscriber number, about which I can't find any information as to whether those old rules are still enforced. UK phone rules are not enforced on properly formatted international phone numbers from outside the UK.
After a long search for valid regexen to cover UK cases, I found that the best way (if you're using client side javascript) to validate UK phone numbers is to use libphonenumber-js along with custom config to reduce bundle size:
If you're using NodeJS, generate UK metadata by running:
npx libphonenumber-metadata-generator metadata.custom.json --countries GB --extended
then import and use the metadata with libphonenumber-js/core:
import { isValidPhoneNumber } from "libphonenumber-js/core";
import data from "./metadata.custom.json";
isValidPhoneNumber("01234567890", "GB", data);
