I’m trying to come up with code that will extract only the price from a line of text.

Motivated by RegEx for Prices?, I came up with the following command:

gregexpr('\\d+(\\.\\d{1,2})', '23434 34.232 asdf 3.12  ')

[[1]]
[1]  7 19
attr(,"match.length")
[1] 5 4
attr(,"useBytes")
[1] TRUE

However, in my case, I would only like 3.12 to match and not 34.232. Any suggestions?

    I think this should work:

    '\\d+\\.\\d{1,2}(?!\\d)'
