The main objective of this project is to help you understand regular expressions in a relaxed way, with clear examples and practical approaches, accompanied by a shot of whiskey or similar, but you can follow with gin and tonic as well.

The dot is a wildcard character that matches anything, including itself.

/whisk.y/

With its traditional combination of rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, and bitters, the Manhattan is an icon in the whisk*y world. It is to whiskey what the martini is to gin and the base for countless cocktails. You can make it with bourbon, Canadian whisky, or any other style, and it's a splendid recipe to use when trying out any new-to-you brand of whisk.y.

9pm is a good time to drink whiskey, but it's not a good time to drink coffee, in which case 9am would be a more appropriate time. 9pm can also be a good time for a cup of tea if you've already exceeded your daily whiskey quota.

/ca./

It is not recommended to drive a car if you drink a shot of whiskey, or any other alcoholic beverage. Maybe it's better to enjoy your cat's company or prepare a new shot.

The list matches who she knows and has its own rules and within it everyone is normal, but the dash (-) indicates range and should be the last item on the list.

Whiskey is an extensive drink for the trade, but the import price can get expensive, especially for some palates.

Is the texture of the jacket you are wearing smooth or coarse? Anyway, it goes great with your drink, of course.
