I have searched and found similar questions, but no definitive answers for what I am looking for. For example, in the string: "I would like the number 98 to be found and printed, thanks." I would like "98" and "thanks" to be outputted, and only those strings. I have tried:
regex pattern{R"(\d{2} | thanks)"}
But that only outputs 98. I have also tried
regex pattern{R"((\d{2})(thanks))"}
But this does not work either. Help would be appreciated! Thanks.
Note: I realize I can do this easily using two patterns, but I am seeing if you can do this using specifically one pattern.
Note 2: This is the rest of the program:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <regex>
using namespace std;
int main() {
regex pattern{R"(\d{2}|thanks)"};
string to_search = "I would like the number 98 to be found and printed, thanks.";
smatch matches;
regex_search(to_search, matches, pattern);
for (auto match : matches) {
cout << match << endl;
}
return 0;
}
