How to match a set of characters (letter + any single character from set + letter) using RegEx in Rust

1 Answer

0 votes
// 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".

use regex::Regex;

fn check_pattern(pattern: &str, text: &str) -> bool {
    let re = Regex::new(&format!("(?i){}", pattern)).unwrap();
    
    re.is_match(text)
}

fn main() {
    let pattern = "b[aeou]y";
    
    println!("{}", check_pattern(pattern, "A smart Boy")); // b/B o y
    println!("{}", check_pattern(pattern, "I want to buy this laptop")); // b u y
    println!("{}", check_pattern(pattern, "baay"));
    println!("{}", check_pattern(pattern, "baeouy"));
    println!("{}", check_pattern(pattern, "baey"));
    println!("{}", check_pattern(pattern, "This is beauty"));
    println!("{}", check_pattern(pattern, "A programming book"));
}
