Let's say I have this code:
val string = "one493two483three"
val pattern = """two(\d+)three""".r
pattern.findAllIn(string).foreach(println)
I expected findAllIn to only return 483, but instead, it returned two483three. I know I could use unapply to extract only that part, but I'd have to have a pattern for the entire string, something like:
val pattern = """one.*two(\d+)three""".r
val pattern(aMatch) = string
println(aMatch) // prints 483
Is there another way of achieving this, without using the classes from java.util directly, and without using unapply?
