I can't do regular expressions...

I need some help on a regular expression if any has the skill.

I need to specify a string in which there can be any number of numbers
followed by a character in the range (d, h, or s)

Exmple:

123d
Thanks

Hi,

The following regular expression should work:

^\d+[dhs]$

I recommend checking out http://RegExLib.com for an extensive list of
regular expressions and a very helpful regular expression cheat sheet.

Hope this helps.
