Hi,
Small hints in using regular expressions:

\ symbol sequence is used to enter \ character in console
. pattern means . only (in regular expressions single dot in pattern means any symbol)
to show that no symbols are allowed before the given pattern, we use ^ symbol at the beginning of the pattern
to specify that no symbols are allowed after the given pattern, we use $ symbol at the end of the pattern
to enter [ or ] symbols, you should escape them with backslash .
