Find and Replace

What is find and replace?

Find and replace is a text editing feature that searches for specific text patterns and replaces them with new text. It's essential for bulk text editing, code refactoring, and content updates.

How do case sensitivity options work?

Case sensitive search matches text exactly as entered (e.g., "Text" won't match "text"). Case insensitive search ignores case differences (e.g., "Text" will match "text", "TEXT", etc.).

What is whole word matching?

Whole word matching finds only complete words, not partial matches within other words. For example, searching for "cat" with whole word matching won't find "category" or "education".

How does regex find and replace work?

Regex (regular expressions) allows complex pattern matching using special characters and syntax. For example, "\d+" matches one or more digits, and "[A-Z]+" matches one or more uppercase letters.
