\b[A-Za-z]+\b
The code for a word boundary (where a word ends or starts ) is \b and a character class is a set of characters surrounded by [ and ] . This allows you to specify what character you want to accept . So , this regular expression matches a word consisting of uppercase or lowercase letters only. The + sign stands for one or more of , so we matching one or more uppercase and / or lowercase letters here.

for example , the regular expression to determine if the text matches a valid e-mail address is :

\w+([-+.']\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*

Here , \w stands for a word character (such as letters , underscores, and the rest) and * means zero or more of .
