Practice regular expressions in JavaScript

Regular Expression Practice

Practice regular expressions in JavaScript

Setup

1. Install Node.js if you haven't previously, using the official installers for your OS, or the package manager of your choice (Homebrew, apt, etc). If you don't know if you have Node.js, node --version will tell you.
2. Fork and clone this repository.
3. Run npm install from the project directory.

Getting to Work

1. Pick an exercise to work on. Each exercise consists of two files of the form exercise.js and spec/exercise.spec.js. You will code in the first of these, and use the second to understand the requirements of the exercise.
2. Run the tests: npm test spec/exercise.spec.js
3. One test will fail. Fix that.
4. When the first test passes, rename the second test from xit to it (to make it visible to the test runner, Jasmine).
5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 until all tests pass.
