Clarification required on more than three repetitions

Challenge reuse-patterns-using-capture-groups has an issue. User Agent is: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:54.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/54.0. Please describe how to reproduce this issue, and include links to screenshots if possible.

I have some clarification issue.

There is some test case

Your regex should not match "42 42 42 42".

which passes when my regular expression matches this string, which is an obvious bug.

Also, behaviour for extra characters around the number that’s repeated twice (like a fourth copy) is not specified in the task description, so should “12 2 23” or “42 42 42 42” match?

let repeatNum = "42 42 42 42";
let reRegex = /^(\d+)\s\1\s\1$/; // Change this line
let result = reRegex.test(repeatNum);

@erictleung Made the change here: #15515

@dakshshah96 yes, that’d be great!
