RegEx NOT condition explanation and examples Creating a "NOT" condition in regular expressions can be achieved primarily through two mechanisms: negated character classes and negative lookarounds. 1. Negated Character Classes This method is used to match any single character except those specified within the class. Syntax: [^...] Explanation: The caret ^ at the beginning of a character class [] negates the class, meaning it will match any character that is not present within the brackets.

Example: ^(?!word).*$ matches an entire lin...
