Re^4: Should be a simple spaces/digits regex....but I'm turning grey!

[Anonymous Monk]

I believe that mine is the one that meets the original specification.

That might be true if you believe the "original specification" was only the five example strings, and you ignore the regexes in the OP, this clarifying post, and the solution, posted six hours before your node.

Interpreting "can't have any spaces after a digit has been found" to mean "a digit may be followed by any number of non-whitespace characters" ([^\s]*) is highly questionable on its own anyway.

Yes, viffer's solution and mine disagree on the validity of your string.

Since viffer is the OP, that's just a strange way of saying that your code is not actually a solution.

In hindsight, it seems that his solution probably does implement what he intendeds.

Another hindsight one might have is "I should have read more than 7 lines of the thread before posting", or "I could have apologized for or at least corrected my mistake instead of defending it".
