I got a system that only accepts regular expressions for matching and since I’ve never done it before I went on-line to lookup some tutorials but got really confused so I’m asking here.

Regular expressions needs to match the following:

File.f
File-1.f

in both cases it has to return what’s before the . or - in the 2nd case (File).

I appreciate the help.

Thanks

    This should do:

    ^[^\.\-]+
    

    (In English: Match has to start at the beginning of the string and consists of everything until either a . or a - is found.)
