twhipple / Code_Challenge_Numbers_In_Strings

Coding challenge Kata that uses Regular Expressions and a lot of trial and error to solve.

Code Challenge:

Regular Expression came in handy. So did help from GeeksforGeeks.com - like this picture!

Numbers In Strings

In this Repo I will attempt to code one of the CodeWars Katas - Numbers In Strings. Seemed pretty easy at first, but the more I tried the more difficult it became. I ended up getting a suggestion from a friend who thought I could use Regular Expressions which worked in the end.

Examples:

In this Kata, you will be given a string that has lowercase letters and numbers. The task is to compare the number groupings and return the largest number.

For example, solve("gh12cdy695m1") = 695, because this is the largest of all number groupings.
