I've tested this regex:
String regex = "[e][#](.)+[$]
the regex works well to identify exponential terms, however it breaks when there are two or more consecutive exponential terms.
I test the regex with the usual code:
while(matcher.find()){
String string = matcher.group();
System.out.println("this one: "+string);
}
When I type the expression:
e#x$ + 3e#x+1$
string equals to (e#(x$+3e#x+1$))
By the way, I added the parentheses inside the while loop. They are necessary for what I am trying to accomplish.
I want the result of string to be (e(#x$))+3(e(#x+1$)
I know the problem lies in "(.)+ What I think is happening is that the regex includes the first $, what I need is for it to stop at the first $.
How can I include this logic inside the regex?
thank you
