JavaScript RegExp {X,Y} Quantifier

JavaScript RegExp {X,Y} QuantifierThe RegExp m{X, Y} Quantifier in JavaScript is used to find the match of any string that contains a sequence of m, X to Y times where X, Y must be numbered. 

Syntax: 

/m{X, Y}/ 

or

new RegExp("m{X, Y}")

Syntax with modifiers:

/\m{X, Y}/g 

or

new RegExp("m{X}", "g")

Javascript




function geek() {
    let str1 = "GeeksforGeeeeks@_123_$";
    let regex4 = /[a-g]{3,4}/gi;
    let match4 = str1.match(regex4);
 
    console.log("Found " + match4.length
        + " matches: " + match4);
}
geek();

    let str1 = "ee@128GeeeeK";
    let regex4 = new RegExp("e{2,3}", "gi");
    let replace = "$";
