A nice bit of fun with RegEx

I'm actually strangely proud of how clunky this solution is...

Wow! What a great solution @PaulRB 🙂 I would never have thought about it that way and I have learned a new function (GetWord). Thanks!

There's no such thing as too much parsing!

Here's my effort. I know a lot more about RegEx than I did this morning!

Bunch of Regex! Probably not the most efficient, but never really used it before so wanted to get my hands dirty.

Thanks @MilneJames . Great to know someone opened it and learned something. You could click "like" on it if you feel that way.
