All characters except dots?

How to find all characters except two dots in a row?

Answer 1

Here, unfortunately, the language is not specified, but when it comes to searching for something in the string that needs to be removed or separated, it is best to simply replace the search subject. I will assume that the language is still JS, respectively, as in any other, a string is just an array of characters, so all you need to do is get rid of these dots.

var str = 'abcabc..ba....bc'; 
str.replace(/\.\./g, '-');
//abcabc-ba--bc
