How to separate 2 groups with a regex?

@ryan.murray 

To separate two groups with a regex, you can use parentheses to group the patterns you want to match separately. Here's an example:

Let's say you have the following text:

"apple orange banana cherry"

If you want to separate the fruits into two groups, one containing "apple" and "orange" and the other containing "banana" and "cherry", you can use the following regex:

(apple|orange)|(banana|cherry)

In this regex, the vertical bar "|" acts as an "or" operator, allowing you to match either "apple" or "orange" in the first group, and "banana" or "cherry" in the second group.

You can use this regex with your programming language's regex functions to extract or manipulate these two groups separately.
