Courses Plus Student 8,981 PointsI can't get match with #2

24,063 PointsSo right now [0-9a] is only going to match any character that is a number from 0-9 or a, so essentially you're matching each single character as a match. so: [0-9a] matches 0 [0-9a] matches a [0-9a] matches 5 if you're trying to match more than one character, you'll need to define your Regex differently - there's a few ways to do it.
What specifically are you NOT getting a match for?
