abstract member Group : unit -> stringReturns
The (possibly empty) subsequence matched by the previous match, in string form
- Attributes
Remarks
Returns the input subsequence matched by the previous match.
For a matcher m with input sequence s, the expressions m.group() and s.substring(m.start(), m.end()) are equivalent.
Note that some patterns, for example a*, match the empty string. This method will return the empty string when the pattern successfully matches the empty string in the input.

Group(Int32)
Returns the input subsequence captured by the given group during the previous match operation.

abstract member Group : int -> stringParameters
- group
- Int32
The index of a capturing group in this matcher's pattern
Returns
The (possibly empty) subsequence captured by the group
during the previous match, or null if the group
failed to match part of the input
- Attributes
Remarks
Returns the input subsequence captured by the given group during the previous match operation.
For a matcher m, input sequence s, and group index g, the expressions m.group(g) and s.substring(m.start(g), m.end(g)) are equivalent.
Capturing groups are indexed from left to right, starting at one. Group zero denotes the entire pattern, so the expression m.group(0) is equivalent to m.group().
If the match was successful but the group specified failed to match any part of the input sequence, then null is returned. Note that some groups, for example (a*), match the empty string. This method will return the empty string when such a group successfully matches the empty string in the input.
