How to capture multiple repeated groups?

Question

I need to capture multiple groups of the same pattern. Suppose, I have a following string:

HELLO,THERE,WORLD

And I\'ve written a following

Answer 1

With one group in the pattern, you can only get one exact result in that group. If your capture group gets repeated by the pattern (you used the + quantifier on the surrounding non-capturing group), only the last value that matches it gets stored.

You have to use your language's regex implementation functions to find all matches of a pattern, then you would have to remove the anchors and the quantifier of the non-capturing group (and you could omit the non-capturing group itself as well).

Alternatively, expand your regex and let the pattern contain one capturing group per group you want to get in the result:

^([A-Z]+),([A-Z]+),([A-Z]+)$
