The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Asked by sapbucket in Regular Expressions, C# Programming Language

Hello,

 I have a regex I am struggling with.

Input:
       <tr>
         <td width="140" class="datahl2">&nbsp;</td>
         <td width="90" class="datahl2b">Offense</td>
         <td width="90" class="datahl2b">Defense</td>
         <td class="datahl4b" width="90">&nbsp;</td>
         <td width="90" class="datahl2b">Offense</td>
         <td width="90" class="datahl2b">Defense</td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
         <td class="datahl2">
           <strong>Points</strong><br>
             >1st third word Quarter<br>
             2nd Quarter<br>
             3rd Quarter<br>
             4th Quarter
         <td class="datacell">
           <strong>96.4</strong><br>
           24.7<br>
           23.2<br>
           21.9<br>
           25.1</td>

Desired output:

Offense
Defense
Offense
Defense
Points
1st third word Quarter
2nd Quarter
3rd Quarter
4th Quarter

I tried the for several hours to construct a regex to do this, and came close, but it matches each individual word (ex: matches "2nd", then matches "Quarter", but not "2nd Quarter"). In general I am struggling with Repetition and Extended Regular expression but I am slowly learning.

Much thanks,
sapbucket
