Thanks Smiling Dragon;
Now i have this question
If i have a list of directories, for example:
/fs/pas/2007/4/6/2634210/admdat/examin
/fs/pas/2007/4/6/2634210/admdat2/stat
/fs/pas/2007/4/6/2634210/admdat3/data
/fs/pas/2007/4/6/2634210/im_2/0b.dcm
Now; my questions are:
1. How to use RE to extract the last file such as "examin and stat,..."?
2. How to use RE to extract the parent directory for the last file. such as "amdat, amdat2, im_2,..."?
3. How to use RE to extract the date in the middle "2007/4/6"?

Hi guys,
I need a help with a query. Basically i want to know the difference between (0+01)* and ((0+01)*)* . It seems whatever string can be generated by the first RE can also be generated by second and they should essentially be same. Am i missing something? (1 Reply)
