Regex matches a text with begin and end arguments-CodePudding

i need help for regex.

I have a string :

1°) Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting :

2°)Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

Of this string i want 2 matches 1°) string following and 2°) string following

I tried with (?<\d°\)).* but this regex does not match the enter key.

Thanks for any help.

CodePudding user response：

You can use

(?m)^\d °\).*(?:\n(?!\d °\)).*)*

See the regex demo. Details:

(?m) - a MULTILINE option
^ - start of a line
\d - one or more digits
°\) - a °) fixed string
.* - the rest of the line
(?:\n(?!\d °\)).*)* - zero or more lines that are not starting with one or more digits and °)

A splitting approach would involve a pattern like

(?:\r\n?|\n)(?=\d °\))

See the regex demo. Details:

(?:\r\n?|\n) - a line break sequence
(?=\d °\)) - a positive lookahead that requires one or more digits and then °) immediately to the right of the current location.
