1 Answer

0 votes
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "regexp"
)

// b[aeou]y: This pattern looks for strings that match the following:
// b: The letter "b".
// [aeou]: Any single character that is either "a", "e", "o", or "u".
// y: The letter "y".

func checkPattern(pattern, text string) bool {
    re, err := regexp.Compile(`(?i)` + pattern)
    
    if err != nil {
        return false
    }
    
    return re.MatchString(text)
}

func main() {
    pattern := "b[aeou]y"

    fmt.Println(checkPattern(pattern, "A smart boy"))               // b o y
    fmt.Println(checkPattern(pattern, "I want to buy this laptop")) // b u y
    fmt.Println(checkPattern(pattern, "baay"))
    fmt.Println(checkPattern(pattern, "baeouy"))
    fmt.Println(checkPattern(pattern, "baey"))
    fmt.Println(checkPattern(pattern, "This is beauty"))
    fmt.Println(checkPattern(pattern, "A programming book"))
}
