I don't understand how majority of the comments say that this explanation is better than a 30 minute video, I don't think anyone who didn't know regex concepts earlier would comment that!!

Thank you for providing such a simple and straightforward tutorial. One point that stands out is your suggestion to use the expression finder feature to test search patterns. That is brilliant and will save us a lot of time as we learn to code.

A minute into the tutorial and the Visual Studio thingy is the coolest thing I learnt today.
