By special characters, you mean not digit or characters?

Hi @Qiu 

 

Nice answer 🙂 I just want to point out that '\w' includes '\d' within it (as '\w' is a short hand for '[A-Za-z0-9_]') so you could just write '(\w+)(.)'

Thanks for the comment.
I though I know this, but it turns out I am still mising some details.

Will keep that in mind.

Have a great day!
