Question

Using JavaScript I’m trying to split a paragraph into it’s sentences using regular expressions. My regular expression doesn’t account for a sentence being inside brackets and I would like to keep the delimiter.

I’ve put an example of the code in jsFiddle.net here

Answer 1

I took the match approach rather than split. It could be tighter (e.g. what if a sentence ends with ..., etc).

text.match(/\(?[A-Z][^\.]+[\.!\?]\)?(\s+|$)/g);
