# How do I use a wildcard to match different characters or patterns?

You can match any single character, any character from a set of characters, any character from a range of characters, or any character that is not within a range of characters using these special characters in the search string:

. Match any single character

[abcd...] Match any single character from the set a, b, c, d ...

[a-z] Match any single character within the range of characters a through z (letters or numbers can be used)

To invert the sense of a wildcard using a set or range of characters, precede the characters with a ^ character.

To match a variable number of characters, append one of the following modifier characters to the character or wildcard being matched:.

+ matches one or more of the preceding character

* matches zero or more of the preceding character

? matches zero or one of the preceding character

{n} matches n instances of the preceding character

{n,m} matches at least n but not more than m instances of the preceding character

{n,} matches at least n instances of the preceding character

Here are some examples of wildcard matching:

/A.B/AB/g removes any single character between 'A' and 'B' in the input string

/A.*B/AB/g removes any number of characters from between 'A' and 'B' in the input string
