RemarksThe RangeExpression class allows you to match strings containing ranges of numbers.
String matching is done using a pattern. This pattern, in addition to regular text, can contain numeric ranges of the form "[n-m]" where n and m are both numbers, e.g. "[001-299]". The ranges are inclusive.
The number of characters in the lower bound of the range determines the minimum number of characters; e.g. the expression "foo[001-299]" will match "foo001" but not "foo1", whereas the expression "foo[1-299]" would match either.
The number of characters in the upper bound determines the maximum number of characters; e.g. the expression "foo[1-099] matches "foo050" and "foo50" but not "foo0050".
In addition to ranges, you can also use alternation with the | character. For example, "foo[00-50]|bar[51-99]" will match both e.g. "foo25" and "bar75".
You can also group subexpressions in parentheses for use with alternation. For example "(foo|bar)[00-50]" will match both e.g. "foo25" and "bar25".
