Having a bit of trouble matching 2 patterns.

Here is the current pattern it is matching.
public static string pattern = @"EUR \d{2,3}\,\d{2}";

If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it a lot!

[Annabelle Lee]

What pattern is it matching? Or am I missing something?

Fuck I'm stupid. I've updated the OP.

I meant that's the regex, but what are you trying to match it against? Sample text?

Your pattern looks fine but if you want to capture the match you must mark a group: EUR (\d{2,3}\,\d{2})

He wants both tho?
wouldent it be

Code

EUR (\d{2,3})\,(\d{2})

Code

EUR (\d{2,3})\,(\d{2})

I would say this is correct, but why isn't he parsing it as a double to easily use it to round/cut down to x decimal places...
Mmh, strange either way.

On the side, why are you using Regex in the first place ?
Are you not just trying to see if its a valid Euro amount aka a decimal one or looking for the string "Eur" and the format ?

Regex is more heavy than a 'TryParse' & Contains("Eur").


EDIT:
To be more complete here are samples on how you could do it (assuming im not mistaking on what you want to achieve ofc)

Get the current threads UI culture and display its currency (USD, EUR, ...)

PHP Code


<?php 
RegionInfo ri = new RegionInfo(System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture.LCID);
            Console.WriteLine(ri.ISOCurrencySymbol); 


Same as above

PHP Code


<?php 
string ci = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.NumberFormat.CurrencySymbol;
            Console.WriteLine(ri.ISOCurrencySymbol); 


Try parse your value to a decimal one

PHP Code


<?php 
// check if "input" contains "Eur" before trying to parse it.
string input;
decimal output;
            if (decimal.TryParse(input, NumberStyles.Number | NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, out output))
            {
               // continue here  
            }

wouldent it be

Code

EUR (\d{2,3})\,(\d{2})

As LaPanthere said, I also found it strange to capture the decimal's sides individually. He could also mean there are 2 potential matches.

If that is not the case then yes it would be

I'm not experienced with C#, I apologise.

I'm trying to scrape prices from a website,
the format is like this:
"EUR 00,00" || "EUR 000,00" || "EUR 0.000,00"
However, I'm also trying to scrape the names of the items, so I need to match other strings.
