If you're working with strings in your data, you'll have come across regex as THE tool to find and replace parts of strings. However, if you are like me and the look like hieroglyphs to you, this website can help you find the regex for your use case:
http://regexr.com/

You can just paste your string in the window below and then use the catalogue/cheat sheets on the left to construct the regex.

Maybe it will help some of you!
