Hey @catherinecodes , I think you've missed the greedy vs lazy matching:
// greedy /".+"/.exec('a "witch" and her "broom" is one') // "witch" and her "broom" // lazy /".+?"/.exec('a "witch" and her "broom" is one') // "witch"
Nice! I didn't learn those yet
You can achieve laziness with negated set too:
/"[^"]+"/.exec('a "witch" and her "broom" is one') // "witch"
