I have an API that is returning the following, malformed string:
M0 0L1.33333 0L1.33333 4L4.44089e-16 4L0 0Z
It should look like this:
M 0 0 L 1.33333 0 L 1.33333 4 L 4.44089e-16 4 L 0 0 Z
How could I write a regex that would select any letter that has a number next to it, preceding or following?
Here are the strings again, next to each other:
M0 0L1.33333 0L1.33333 4L4.44089e-16 4L0 0Z
<-incorrect
M 0 0 L 1.33333 0 L 1.33333 4 L 4.44089e-16 4 L 0 0 Z
<-correct
Thanks!
A little background: this is a vector returned by the Figma API and I don't know why it's formatted like that.

something like this should work: /[A-Z]\d|\d[A-Z]/g
https://regexr.com/ really helps with testing out regexes.
here's a link to the one i've been testing on: https://regexr.com/65vu7

You could use this regex here regexr.com/65vvt
([A-Z])\d|\d([A-Z])
And then check for capture group 1 or 2. That will match all the capital letters of your incorrect example string but none of your correct string.
