How to get a handle with regular expression (regex)

Question

Learning about regular expression is a little like learning Egyptian from looking a hieroglyphics. However, I found two (2) sources that can help with that. The first is a cheat sheet with (I assume) all the symbols and their meaning. Go to: https://goo.gl/zIy6Qu for the PDF file.

Next is a regex decoder. Go to: https://regexper.com/ and enter your expression for an explanation of the pattern. A really excellent source when your pattern doesn't seem to be working.
